THE EAST CAROLINIAN Volume 78 Number 10 September 20, 2001 28 Parent notification option, different student views STEPHANIE SUBER STAFF WRITER The university recently estab- lished the initiative to reduce the impact of alcohol and other drugs on campus. The $8,000 grant will be used to fund strategies implemented from the research of the 33-member task force. The task force is divided into four committees, education and awareness, safety and healthy environment, policy review and implementation, assessment and evaluation. ECU is one of ten univer- sities in the state to receive an $8,000 grant to fight excessive alcohol use among freshmen. According to Bob Morphet, a counselor in the center for counsel- ing and student development, the committee™s main goal is to make recommendations about the most appropriate way toreduce the nega- tive effects of binge drinking that are seen on campus. Morphet said some of the recom- mendations being considered by the committee right now include: encouraging more class enrollment on Fridays so that the weekend does not begin on Thursday night, changing some of the policies on campus that deal with binge drink- ers, bringing the message into core subjects like biology and chemistry Several students enjoy a game of beer pong at a party. and calling a student™s parents on their second alcoholic offense. the process to know what actions will viduals who are affected by the Perhaps the most controversial be taken with the award money. programs ECU decides to imple- of these changes that may be imple-She said that according to com-ment will have a real change on the mented is calling a student™s parents parisons of other schools our size, environment.

Last year 3,131 football tickets, 2,243 buffet tickets and 863 concert tickets were sold. This year™s concert will feature the ECU Jazz Ensemble. According to Woodruff, this is different from past years. We used to book outside enter- tainers, but then we thought why, when we have such great talent here on campus, she said. Plus, we added a special singing of ˜America the Beautiful™ at the beginning of the concert to salute the victims of the tragedy and the spirit of Americans. Woodruff said all funding from the concert will go to ECU™s Jazz pro- gram to fund scholarships and other operational needs of the ensemble. According to Laura Sweet, assis- tant vice chancellor of student suc- cess, the weekend began in 1980. Sweet said she and Ron Sprier, former dean of students, were part of the committee which started the event. Sweet said the event started when Pam Holt, former assistant athletic director, began Parent™s day for the football players parents. Many parents called about the event thinking it was for all parents and thought that would be a great idea. It took off from there, but is always centered around a football game, said Sweet.

"THE SWORD ONC E DRAWN, ; To FU One year later, the group, SALSA, has nearly tripled, thanks to the support of the university and the enthusiasm of its students. September is National Spanish Heritage month. i's an ideal time to reflect upon the diverse nature of our campus. Though we feel that ECU still has a way to go, the university has come a long way. in fostering as well as embracing diversity in the past few years. Just one year ago, some students joined together in the hope of creating a student organization on campus for persons of Spanish descent. One year later, the group, SALSA, has nearly tripled, thanks to the support of the university and the enthusiasm of its students. Now, approximately 40 students meet on a regular basis to promote their heritage while volunteer- ing their time and a great deal of effort to bettering the lives of many. Ona regular basis, students from SALSA volunteer to teach Spanish speaking people the English language in addition to acting as mentors for Spanish children of the Boys and Girls Club. It's amazing how much can be accomplished in such a short period of time. This month as members of SALSA will be celebrating their heritage, we too will celebrate -we will celebrate their presence on campus. In the years to come, we can only hope that more groups, like SALSA, will emerge. Truly, the members of SALSA are an inspiration to us all. What this war RICHARD PARKER AND BRYAN BENDER Beneath the rubble in New York and Washington lies a terrible ques- tion: Will the most devastating attack on America in modern times lead to war? The answer is increasingly yes, in a war that will be fought abroad and at home. There is little disagreement that Osama Bin Laden™s al-Qa™eda carried out the operation. But this operation most assuredly enjoyed the support of a foreign government, likely Iraq™s. American bombs over Baghdad and Kabul will probably trigger terrorist bombs here in the United States. In seeking revenge, Americans should prepare to pay for it. The most telling details emerge in the targeted cities: Washington and New York. The Bush administra- tion is moving painstakingly slowly in crafting its next action. If this was merely the work of Osama bin Laden™s network, cruise missiles, bombs and special operations forces would already have descended on Afghanistan. ˜Indeed, bin Laden™s operatives appear to have left a series of clues behind that strongly suggest the help of a state intelligence service, most likely that of Iraq. Israeli intelligence has reportedly told its government that Iraq probably financed the operation and may have provided other support. Early indications indicate that the people who carried out the hijackings entered the coun- try with documents good enough to avoid detection; in the past bin Laden™s network has often tripped up because of faulty passports and papers. In addition, the operation dis- played a high degree of deception; In a tale that depicts such evil and horrid acts, and after the painful scene that will be forever imprinted in America™s mind, shines a story of strength that will rise above it all. In New York and Washington D.C., there are men and women who work through the nights and days giving relief to their cities and their country. They are the firemen, police, rescue workers, National Guard, and yes, the volunteers. The volunteers consist not only of citizens in the attacked cities, but people all around the country. People who are donating overwhelm- ing amounts of blood, among other resources, are also volunteers. While the rest of us just hold the victims and this country in will be like the electronic ears of the National Security Agency were attuned to significant amounts of traffic in recent months but all that traffic pointed to attacks abroad. This sug- gests that bin Laden™s network has access to a secure communications network. If Air Force One was a target then the operatives had command and control with which to threaten the president™s aircraft. Even the operational value of the targets in New York benefits both lraq and bin Laden, according to sources in New York. The World Trade Center may have housed an office of the Central intelligence Agency, though a more public office exists at One Federal Plaza. And sources have indicated in the past that billions of dollars in Kuwaiti gold ” always a source of frustration to Saddam™s regime ” are in a vault now buried beneath the rubble. For other strategic and political reasons, too, Iraq will make a handy whipping boy. The U.S. military was poised to launch a major air campaign just a few months ago. Aside from this case, Iraq has already rebuilt key portions of its chemical production complex. These plants were used to make chemical weapons precursors in advance of the Gulf War, according to the CIA. it is unlikely that the next war with bin Laden and Iraq -and anyone else who is defined as an enemy -will be a one-sided affair, that intrudes upon the lives of Americans only through their television screens. It will probably be a conflict both conventional and unconventional abroad, involving American aircraft and Special Operations Forces, who have long trained for such a mis- sion. {ne our prayers. Not to overshadow the citizens of these cities who, in my opinion, have done an amazing job adjusting. And I™m sure that if an event of this magnitude fell in to our backyard here, we would act the same. That™s what this country is all about. A lot of people get this typecast impression about New Yorkers. Many believe they are rude and uncaring. But, at the core, they are the same as you and I. Whole-hearted believers of a certain principle. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; that we call America. Brandon Ives Student, ECU The global America™s catastrophe this week has turned out to be the world™s catastrophe. The evidence is in the emerging list of victims and the roster of firms in the World Trade Center. There were 430 businesses from 26 different nations. Some 100 Britons are known to have died in the New York attacks and hundreds more who worked in the twin towers are missing. Japan had 31 firms housed there. China had 18. Citizens of Australia, Germany, Ireland and Japan perished on the hijacked pianes. Indians are praying for the United States. Russians are laying flowers at our embassy in Moscow. Every Western leader has condemned the barbaric attacks in New York and Washington. The French, hardly apologists for America in good times, have often stood with us in bad. We are all Americans, wrote the Paris newspaper Le Monde, recalling the U.S. role in safeguarding French freedom. The sentiment is appreciated. Now it™s time to see who backs it up. The Bush administration is build- ing a coalition among nations to respond to the terrorist assault that happened on U.S. soil, but touched the world. Does the world have the stomach for the engagement that would be necessary to rip apart ter- America has forever changed. The carefree feeling of freedom that we adore will never again go unap- preciated. But freedom we shall restore. When we pass different races on the street. Whether white black or red, we are reminded of our on struggles. And the civil blood we have shed .. for so long our worlds have quar- reled. Brothers joined by color rather than creed, yet now that hell is upon us. Togetherness is our new breed. We hold these truths to be self evident ... that all men are created equal. So long now, these words have been pointless. But now we create our own sequel. We join hands despite their color and sing out for the land of the _ free and lean upon each other from sea to shining sea. We ask how can this happen to us, but who is us and where have we been? Are we still divided by homeland claims? The clothes we wear? The shade of our skin? Are we not all casualty list rorist networks? To date, it has not. The State Department each year issues a review of nations that are believed to spon- sor terrorist organizations. The latest list includes Iran, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Cuba, North Korea and Sudan. Afghanistan, which is believed to harbor the terrorist Osama bin Laden, is not on the list, apparently because the U.S. doesn™t recognize the Taliban, the Islamic regime run- ning the country. Pakistan, which has shown con- siderable support for the Taliban, is not on the list, presumably because the U.S. doesn™t want to antagonize a budding nuclear power and one-time ally. The United States has battled many of these states with military and economic sanctions, to little effect. It has, in the cases of Iraq and Libya, pummeled them with air power to limited effect. The investigation appears to be moving astonishingly swiftly. Terror- ists on the planes have been identi- fied. On Thursday, Secretary of State Colin Powell named bin Laden as a prime suspect. Powell tele- phoned Pakistan™s leader, Gen. Pervez Musharraf, to demand specific help from that country and Musharraf almost saluted, committing Paki- stani resources to helping find the culprits. mutts? We are a mixture of so many creators from the past. Can we finally accept who we are? And proclaim that we are free at last. America may need a new hero ... a new FDR or a new Dr. King. Or maybe we have what we need. Though it came in the image of smoke and fire. A second chance has been placed in our hands to do with it what we will. Now we must focus on thoughts of love and brotherhood. And focus less on who to kill. Let our leaders decide another nations fate. Justice will be served. But justice will not solve. It is up to us as citizens to make a change. And look ahead for the red white and blue. These the only colors that matter ... the colors made up of me and you.

With a limited amount of money, and the complication of not knowing their locations, the teams face a challenge like no other. ] think ˜Lost™ is going to be a fantastic series, said senior com- munication major, Andrea Terrill. We all thought that reality-based Jazz from page B1 In spite of his acclaimed work as a composer for such films as Mo™ Better Blues, Malcolm X, Love and Basketball, and more, he still consid- ers himself a jazz musician. His recent work truly embraces that, with his award winning album called Wandering Moon. The album consists of eight original composi- tions by Blanchard.

What sets Blanchard apart from the rest is his ability to have multiple talents. Blanchard skillfully sketches mood and emotion as he swings between recordings and film scores, said the Time Magazine.

Woodruff also feels that students. with music aspiration would benefit greatly from Blanchard™s arrival. You don™t rub elbows at this caliber everyday, Woodruff said.
