Campus as students deal with recent events
GINGER JOHNSON
STAFF WRITER
Like the rest of the country, ECU is struggling to deal with
the recent tragic events as students once again came together
to reflect and show support for America last Thursday.
Some students came with American flags in hand and
others with red, white, and blue ribbons pinned to their
shirts; everyone held a candle.
As the candle lighting began, America� rang out across
the mall.
Junior Rory Wood expressed sentiments of many of the
students attending.
t feel like I need to do something. I gave blood yesterday,
and I just want to support our country,� said Wood.
After the students finished lighting their candles, Junior
Jermaine Johnson led the students in The Stared Spangled
Banner.�
Many of the students were holding hands and crying as
they joined the singing.

In an effort to increase knowl-
edge about sexual assauit, Student
Health Services began promotions
for Sexual Assault Awareness week
yesterday.
According to Beth Credle, direc-
tor of health education, the week is
aimed at raising awareness.
We hope students will be more
cautious,� she said. Obviously all
sexual assaults canTt be prevented,
but hopefully this week will elimi-
nate them.�
Senior Terra Steinbeiser said the
week is very important.
Prevention is the key,� said
Steinbeiser.
Credle said students should
always be aware of their surround-
ings and trust their instincts.
Most rapes involve alcohol,�
she said. Consumption should be
limited and students should have a
buddy system.�
Credle also urged students never
to accept an opened drink.
GHB, the date rape drug, is in
Greenville,� she said. It can easily
be slipped into any drink, alcoholic
or just a coke. Students have been
affected by the drug, so students
*One in three women will

*Sexual assault continues to
represent the most rapidly growing
violent crime in America.
* Over 700,000 women are sexu-
ally assaulted each year.
*Every day in America 1,871

*80 percent of all rapes are per-

only 20 percent of rapes are by
strangers.
*Alcohol and drugs contribute
to 60 percent of date rapes.
need to be aware.�
According to Credle, most think
that attackers come out of the bushes
when in fact this is not true.
Most attackers are known by
the victim,� she said.
Laura Sweet, advocate for student
in crisis, said the week will teach
women to protect themselves.
The more they learn the safer
they will feel and be,� said Sweet.
According to Credle, sexual
assault awareness week is done every
fall and spring. Information booths
will be in Todd Dining Hall and
Wright Place between 11-1 p.m.
this week. A candlelight vigil for
survivors, family and friends will
be held at 7 p.m. tonight at the
Student Health center. A Take Back
the March Night� procession will
begin at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday at
Belk Hall. Participants will march
through campus.
*12 percent of all sexual assault
victims are men.
*Only 16 percent of rapes are
ever reported. Most cases are
reported within 24 hours of the
attack.
*Black men rape 70 percent of
black rape victims; 78 percent of
white victims are raped by white
men.
*75 percent to 80 percent of
rape victims blame themselves for
the crime.
*One out of every seven women
is the victim of martial rape.
*Less than two percent of
reported rapes are faise reports
*40 percent of rapists are mar-
ried or have a regular sex partner.

Shots rang out in the parking lot
of PirateTs Place after a dispute broke
out around 3 a.m. on Sunday.
According to Melissa Bartlett,
public information officer of the
Greenville police department, police
were called to the scene.
Bartlett said that on the way
to the scene the officers received
another call. The caller said the
man that had fired the gun had fled
the scene and drove away in the
vehicle.
According to Bartlett, officers
located the vehicle and apprehended
the driver and shooter.
Bartlett said the vehicle was
searched and 9.7 grams of powder
cocaine was found.
The driver, William Whitby, 20,
of Littleton, N.C. was arrested and
charged with possession to sell and
distribute and maintaining a vehicle
with controlled substances. Whitby
was placed under a $100,000 secured

According to a detention center,
Whitby and Daily are still in cus-
tody.
Jeanne Watkins, property man-
ager of PirateTs Place, said she is in
contact with the police collecting
all the details.
It brings concern to me,� she
said. I am dealing with concerned
parents and working on getting
information on the incident to the
residents.�
Watkins said congregating in
large numbers is not allowed per
residentTs lease agreements.
When in large numbers, resi-
dents need to be proactive and con-
tact the police before things get out

According to Watkins, this is the
first time an incident of this nature
has occurred.
Hopefully it is an isolated one,�
she said.

The candlelight also asked stu-
dents to remain tolerant towards all
American citizens in the wake of the
disaster.
Let the candle [represent] sym-
bols of cohesiveness. We need to stay
united and not have misplaced hate.
We need to stay together. This is the
worst terrorist attack in the country
and the world. We need to pray and
keep faith,� said Justin Mullarkey, the
public relations director for SGA.
The event was put together in two
days by the SGA. Cox attributed it
mainly to MullarkeyTs work. After the
event, students and alumna gathered
together for a few minutes.

(AP) The time it takes to travel
from the Senate floor to his office

of colleagues and school children
who stop him along the way to wish
him well and get a picture taken
with him.
U.S. Senator Jesse Helms, how-
ever, says he wonTt let his final 16
months in office deteriorate into a
farewell tour devoid of productivity.
ITm going to do my job, and
thereTs plenty to do,T Helms said.
T want to go out perspiring a little
bit.�
In an interview with the News &
Observer of Raleigh, the 79-year-old
senator and his aides touched on
more than a dozen issues ranging
from the far-reaching to the routine,
in which he plans to be engaged in
the coming months.
The North Carolina Republican is
considering championing a buyout of
the tobacco quota system; an ambi-
tious and expensive move intended
to help struggling family farmers get
out of the business.
In addition, Helms says he wants
to get the administration to do more
to help ailing industry textiles.
He says he might pay a personal
visit to President Bush to discuss it.
Helms has spoken openly in
recent months about his frustration
with the effects of the Bush admin-
istrationTs free-trade posture on his
stateTs ailing textile industry.
The textile industry is not going
One of these days ITm going
to drop by and give the president
chapter and verse on this.�
Helms, the top Republican on
the Senate Foreign Relations Com-
mittee, plans to continue pushing
an array of foreign-policy initiatives,
and has his own ideas about what
immigration policy with Mexico
should look like.
In the interview, Helms offered
his thoughts on one of the largest
issues confronting U.S.-Mexican
relations: amnesty for illegal work-
ers.
TheyTre coming in by the thou-
sands, and letTs face it, weTre not
going to be able to stop that,� Helms
said.
We ought to say to them, youTre
not a citizen, but weTre not going
to push you back because we know
you're going to come back anyhow.
But if you remain employed and
law-abiding for three years, we'll be
prepared to offer you citizenship.�
He said he would also like to
see several long-running disputes
resolved, including whether to move
ahead with the plan to build giant
rock jetties in Oregon
Inlet to protect fishermen who
pass through.
But with the news that he will
not seek a sixth term, Helms faces
the challenge of overcoming the

science at N.C. State University.

atmosphere that allowed students to gain
last week. strength from one another.
ECU tends to be a magnet school for students
up and down the eastern seaboard. Realistically,
many students were somehow affected by the
tragedies of late.
We applaud SGA for taking the initiative to
put together something that would benfit the
student body during these trying times.
As students grasped arms and belted out
songs like Lean On Me� tears flowed and
hearts sank as the reality of that fateful day
seemed to be all too real.
Our entire generation will undoubtedly be
influenced by the events of last week. The
visions of that plane crashing into the World
Trade center not once, but twice, will forever be
etched in our minds.
One thing is certain, America and the world, for
that matter, is just beginning its plight against
terrorism. In the weeks and perhaps years to
come, there will be lives lost and families broken.
As Americans, we have to come together just as
those thousand students did last Thursday and
show that we will not be broken ... ever.

Peace. Hate. Anger. Joy. Despair.
Make love not war. Do the right
thing. So much of what has occurred
over the past week with the recent
series of tragedies afflicting the
nation, give us all more food for
thought tied into our quality of life.
In watching the video replays
of the planes colliding into the
World Trade Center in New York and
seeing the aftermath of the devasta-
tion there and at the Pentagon at
Washington, DC -all of this had a
surreal quality to it. These scenes
reminded all of us of the horror and
terror associated with the loss of
innocent human lives especially as
we listen too to the testimonies of
people who were affected by the
crisis, some who are close to us such
as our friends, family or extended
family.
In my mind, all of this presents
a sobering moment of reflection
as we consider the reality of our
vulnerability not only as a nation but
as a community in crisis. The word

I would like to address all of the
students with this letter. This past
week has been a difficult time for all
of us. There have been many positive
contributions and collective efforts
on ideas to help the situation.
With this situation, we need to
focus on coming together as a com-
munity as opposed to discriminating
and pointing fingers to other students
because of their race or ethnicity.
