"I'm just looking for a fun time." Reynolds, a business freshman, was one of an estimated 400 fra­ ternity hopefuls who filed into Etter-Harbin* Alumni Center Monday for the official beginning of U T s interfratemal rush week. Form al rush, which ends Friday, is the designated selection period for Greek organizations, during which "bid" cards are issued by fraternities to desirable candidates. Candidates then have about a week to decide which of the bids, if any, to accept, and to return that card to its respective fraternity.

Faculty member accuses UT of discrimination By Katherine Pace Daily Texan Staff An associate journalism pro­ fessor filed a lawsuit last week against UT President Larry Faulkner and Ellen Wartella, dean of the College of Comm­ unication, alleging racial dis­ crimination. In the lawsuit, Paula Poindexter alleged she "was denied a promo­ tion to full professor because of her race." "This suit is bigger than me," Poindexter told The Texan on Monday. "We cannot continue to turn a blind eye to problems of discrimination." . Poindexter was appointed to be a tenured associate professor at the University in 1992 after working as an executive at the Los Angeles Times and as a KPRC-TV Houston news pro­ ducer and reporter. Poindexter claims she satis­ fied all of the University's requirements for promotion to full professor. However, in the lawsuit, she claims she was denied an appointment to department chairwoman in 1996 and a promotion to full profes­ sor in 2000 because "the criteri­ on of race was imposed on [her] but not on the white, associate professors." Poindexter is requesting that the University pay her for dam­ ages, costs of the suit and attor­ ney s fees and that she be pro- Associate jour­ nalism profes­ sor claims she was denied a promotion due to her race. Paula Poindexter moted to the position of full pro­ fessor with appropriate salary adjustments. She is also asking that the University create a posi­ tion to determine a nondiscrimi- natory method for faculty hir­ ing. UT officials on Monday denied wrongdoing. "The University's decision is that race did not play a factor in the case," said Patricia Ohlendorf, vice president for institutional relations and legal affairs. Ohlendorf said the Office of Legal Affairs is currently review­ ing the suit, which is about 90 pages long. The office will work with the UT System Office of General Counsel and will receive legal counsel from the Office of the Attorney General. Poindexter said her griev­ ances are not limited to the jour­ nalism department, but address a history of discrimination at the University and in Texas.

To comply with a 1944 treaty, Mexico must transfer 350,000 acre-ti*et of water to the United States each year, but the Chihudhudn government has- n't covered its deficit from 1992- 1997 h the country can't comply because of water shortage, the tieaty allows the water debt to be repaid in the following five- year cycle. The current five- year cycle ends Oct. 2. "Chihuahua has had incredi­ bly good rain, Chihuahua is not in extreme drought, and it is going to make it hard for Mexico to state credibly that they are in extreme drought," Texas Agriculture Com m iss­ ioner Susan Combs said. Some Texas farmers believe that Mexico is simply ignoring the treaty, while others believe there is no water for Mexico to transfer. Gene Hall, spokesman for the Texas Farm Bureau, said water withheld from Texas is being used to produce Chihuahuan crops that compete with Texan agriculture. [Mexican "Short of sending the troops into Chihuahua, I’m not sure what President Vicente] Fox can do," Hall said. Combs said the treaty should have included a way to ensure water is released. "You have to have an enforcement mechanism in the treaty," Combs said. "You have to have a way to make people comply."

Medical malpractice insurance covers medical professionals who are sued for malpractice by patients. The Texas Department of Insurance reported that since 1999, only one of the eight largest providers of malpractice insur­ ance in the state's rates has gone down. The other seven have had rising rates, up from 22.5 percent to almost 120 percent for the state's largest provider of mal­ practice insurance, the Texas Medical Liability Trust. Donna Kinney, an analyst for the Texas Medical Association, said higher malpractice premiums have caused higher health-care costs. She said 87 percent of mal­ practice cases are decided with no ___ indemnity, many of which might be classified as "frivolous." "Those cases don't help patients," she said. "They certain­ ly don't help doctors." Kinney said that even in cases in which no damages are award­ ed, the insurance companies usu­ ally pay $10,000 per case in legal expenses. Texas Sen. Jane Nelson, chair of the Special Senate Committee on Prompt Payment of Health Care Providers, was unavailable for' comment, but has released a statement demanding some kind of action to reduce malpractice insurance rates. "Millions of dollars are being siphoned away from our hospi­ tals and doctors' offices into the courtroom," Nelson, a Flower Mound Republican, said in the statement. The Texas Medical Association endorses putting a cap on the amount of non-economic dam­ ages plaintiffs can receive, said Rich Johnson, TMA's director of medical economics. Non-eco­ nomic damages include items that are not awarded to compen­ sate for financial costs already incurred by the plaintiff, such as pain and suffering. "The Texas Medical Association is strongly supportive of constitu­ tionally sound and efficacious damage caps," Johnson said. He said the association is researching the appropriate dol­ lar amount the caps should be. Texas Sen. Mario Gallegos, a member of the prompt payment committee, said he is concerned about how caps would affect lower-income plaintiffs. "I'm against frivolous lawsuits, but on the other side of the coin, what about the little old lady down the street who's on Social Security and something hap­ pens," said Gallegos, D-Houston. "If something happens, and we put a cap on the amount she can receive, she will miss out on Sm MALPRACTICE, page 2 Pa^e 2 PageT wo Procrastination could be hazardous to health GOOD TO THE LAST DROP Caffeine has been found to lower the risk of skin cancer in laboratory mice.

Tuesday, August 2 7 ,2 0 0 2 T h e D a ily T exan By Yvonne Lim Daily Texan Staff Cramming for an exam the day of the test, allowing overdue bills to stack up and waiting until the gauge points to "empty" to refuel may cause more damage than just a little stress. Researchers have found that problems with procrastination reach beyond inconvenience — they could actually hurt your health. A study by Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada, looked at 374 and undergraduate students found that procrastinators have higher rates of smoking and drinking problems, digestive ail­ ments, insomnia and cold and flu symptoms than the student popu­ lation at large. "It all relates to a sense of self- efficacy and self-control," said Timothy A. Pychyl, an associate professor of psychology at Carleton, who co-conducted the study. He said that those who say to themselves, "What I do doesn't matter," have a low sense of self- efficacy. "Once we start to have success­ es, we start to have a change in self-efficacy," Pychyl said. Pychyl recommends people make contracts with themselves such as committing 15 minutes to a certain activity. "You can do anything for 15 minutes," Pychyl said. Lucy Velez, a communication sophomore, believes her procras­ tination habits have contributed to poor health. "You're trying not to get your work done, so what are you doing? You're eating more or you're drinking or you're smok­ ing ... and by the time you have time to study, you're dead — you have no energy," Velez said. Change may not be easy for some. Bruce W. Tuckman, a pro­ fessor of educational policy and leadership at Ohio State Univ­ ersity, believes that procrastina­ tors have an "intolerance for frus­ tration ' and prefer to have fun in the short term. Tuckman per­ formed a separate study on pro­ crastination and its effects on per­ formance. "Almost every procrastinator always says that they can work better under pressure, but they've only worked under pressure," Tuckman said. While Tuckman is not confident that procrastination is something that can be changed, he does believe that providing structured environments and setting specific deadlines or goals for procrastina­ tors will help. "I've taken a chemistry final 30 minutes late and finished a paper 30 minutes before class," said Nil Saha, a business sophomore. Saha admits to waiting until the last minute and no longer feels stress in procrastinating. "I've gotten pretty used to it Procrastination]. If I didn't get it done, I'd be pretty stressed."

T wrote an extensive detailed letter listing all the concerns I had and saying strongly that I felt I should have been promot­ ed," she said. Faulkner and Provost Sheldon Ekland-Olson responded with a letter saying they "stood by their decision to deny [her] pro­ motion." Poindexter then filed a com­ plaint with the U niversity's Equal Employment Opportun­ ity Office, one of 83 EEOC com­ plaints filed against the Univer­ sity since 1999. The EEOC conducted an internal review and found that there was no merit to the claims, said Donald Hale, vice president for public affairs. Poindexter is alleging that the University tried to influence EEOC's decision by knowingly submitting false information to the council. In her lawsuit, • Poindexter cited statistics she said reveal discriminatory practices at the University. Only 5 percent of the Univer­ sity's 665 executives, adminis­ trators and managers are black, and there are no black academic vice presidents in administra­ tive positions, according to UT statistics. While 4.9 percent of faculty across the country are African American, only 3 per­ cent of UT faculty are black. "There is a tolerance towards discriminatory behavior," she said. "We're in the year 2002, and this should have been add­ ressed a long time ago, and it has not been." Faulkner and Wartella were unavailable for comment Mon­ day.

Verrengla Associated Press JOHANNESBURG, South Africa — The United Nations opened its largest summit ever Monday, with leaders demanding concrete action to protect nature while boosting living standards for billions of the world's poorest inhabitants. Rampant consumerism and industrialized greed continue to lead to the plundering of rain forests and the polluting of the atmosphere, delegates said, while desperately poor people drain their lands of water, topsoil and wildlife just to stay alive. "A global human society based on poverty for many and prosper­ ity for a few, characterized by islands of wealth, surrounded by a sea of poverty, is unsustainable," South African President Thabo Mbeki told delegates at the open­ ing session of the World Summit on Sustainable Development. About 20 miles away, a colorful, less organized gathering of activists called the Global Pepples' Forum struggled to gain momentum. Delegates there sang and danced, waved placards and meditated while campaigning for everything from better access to clean water to world peace. One sculptor fashioned penguins from ice with a chain saw, leav­ ing them to melt in the sun to represent global warming. However, the announced key­ note speaker, former South African President Nelson Mandela, did not show up. His office said the organ­ izers never invited him. The government summit is being held in Sandton, Africa's glitziest commercial district of palatial mar- ble-and-glass towers looming over the squalid township of Alexandra, where many people live in the very' hopeless conditions the summit seeks to erase.

But where there is a w ill to procure a desired product at a low er cost, there is always a way. Luckily for sm okers, the free m arket and legal lo o p h o les have allow ed them to circum vent suffocating governm ent legislation and find cigarettes for very low prices. In addition to the Texas tradition of h op p in g the bor­ der to grab som e cheap sm okes in M atam oros or Ciudad Acuña, sm oke snops on Indian reservations have becom e more popu lar with smokers as w ord gets out that one can buy cartons for less than $20. And ordering on the Internet has gained notoriety, as Sw iss tax loopholes have a llo w ed for a gray m arket to d e v e l­ op for ordering cigarettes m ade in the European Union. The Sw iss cigarettes are often made w itn Am erican tobacco in European factories owned by Am erican cig­ arette concerns. All this consum er in gen u ity has not flow n under the political radar, how ever. N ever ones to m iss an oppor­ tunity to extort m orality taxes from otherw ise law- abiding Americans, the U.S. H ouse of R epresentatives is currently consid ering a bill, titled the "Tobacco Sm uggling Eradication Act" to combat cigarette tax evasion. According to a press release issued by the office of A ustin's U.S. R epresentative, Lloyd D oggett, the bill aim s to elim inate tobacco sm uggling — and the result­ ant lost tax revenue — by im posing new labeling and reporting requirem ents for better tracking of tobacco products and gives states added legal punch to collect cigarette taxes. It is estim ated that $1.5 billion in feder­ al and state cigarette taxes goes uncollected every year. Cracking dow n on cigarette sm uggling could also be seen as a corollary to the terror war. In July, 17 men w ere arrested on ch arges of cigarette sm u g g lin g . A uthorities also alleged that proceeds from the sm u g­ glin g ring were being funneled to the terror organiza­ tion of H ezbollah, p roving that sm oking anything could potentially fund terrorists. W hile it is noble to w atch out for the w ell-b ein g of Am erican citizens w h ile sim ultaneously m aking them fund the governm ent through a leisure activity, the desire to end tobacco sm u gglin g amounts to little more than proof that the governm ent needs to keep its nose out of what consenting adults do in their free time. People want to sm oke, they will always w ant to sm oke, and if th ey can avoid p aying artificially higher prices for sm oking, th e y w ill.

With the economy's recovery from the 2001 recession looking at best weak, or at worst like another turn into recession, and with accounting scandals at major cor­ porations, one can easily get the feeling that the market is failing us. That feeling would be mistak­ en. We have to contrast the rela­ tively unfettered market capital­ ists advocate with the relevant alternative, greater state control and direction of the economy. If capitalism looks bad because it allows recessions and managerial fraud, how would a more state- directed economy compare? Why are there recessions? A dictionary will say that a reces­ sion is a stage in the economic cycle m arked by a decreased demand for goods. But there is never a decrease in the demand for goods in general, since human wants are unlimited. There can be a decrease in the demand for goods that are on offer at a given time, because the goods swamp­ ing the market may not meet any urgent need on the part of con­ sumers. Such economic heavy­ weights as Ludwig von Mises and Nobel Prize winner Friedrich Hayek suggest that a recession occurs when many businesses simultaneously borrow large amounts of capital for the pro­ duction of specific kinds of goods for which there is little demand. Because of the low demand, there is a general downturn in con­ sumption; since many businesses simultaneously employ large quantities of capital in the pro­ duction of these goods, there's less capital available for the pro­ duction of goods consumers actually want. We call the 2001 recession the "dot-com bust," and we re right to do so. The dot-coms borrowed enormous quantities of capital, but had few willing customers. Since potentially productive capi­ tal was being wasted producing goods nobody wanted, overall dem and shrank. The dot-coms went out of business and their em ployees went out of work. This is exactly what capitalists expect to happen when enor­ m ous amounts of capital are invested in new and untried busi­ ness ventures: Many of those ventures will have been bad ideas, and that capital will have been wasted. Just as science progresses by the conjecture and refutation of theories about the workings of the physical world, the market that mismanagement w as behind the dot-com bust, we can easily accept that there was w rongdo­ ing behind the scandals. H eads of major corporations have, w ithout question, defrauded th e ir em ­ ployees and stockholders out of billions of dollars. O bviously they ought to be held responsible for these criminal acts. It would be a mistake to think that capitalism somehow specifi­ cally allows the scandals. To the contrary: Under a legal system designed in large part to struc­ ture and enhance the w orkings of the free market, the Enron and WorldCom fiascoes are illegal Capitalism has long since out- It would be a mistake to think that capitalism somehow specifically allows the scandals. progresses by the conjecture and refutation of theories about the dem ands consumers: of Investm ent is conjecture, and sales, or their absence, are confir­ mation or refutation. Just as it's impossible to have science with­ out empirical testing, it's impossi­ ble to have an economy without testing products against the mar­ ket. No one could have known, in advance of the dot-com boom and bust, which of the dot-coms were good ideas and which were bad. Now we know, and the recession is what tells us. To believe that a more state-directed economy would be one that did­ n't have recessions is to believe that bureaucrats magically have m knowledge that entrepreneurs can acquire only through testing their ideas in the market. Capitalism, however, has more to answer for: There is also the wave of corporate scandals. While a capitalist need not accept lawed the "creative accounting behind the scandals. When agents in the m arket defraud stockholders, their com­ panies collapse and the govern ment moves in to do its job. But what happens when the govern ment defrauds its ta x p a y e rs’ Let's take one example, the popu lar anti-drug program DARE. Joel Brown is executive direc tor of the Center for Education Research and Development in Berkeley, which has studied the effects of DARE across tim e He says, "In study after study, wv find programs like these don't work. DARE has been involved in a massive expansion regard­ less of whether the science b e a r s the expansion worthy." For instance, the claim that any drug use at all leads instantly to addic­ tion doesn't work very well once DARE graduates learn that their friends who occasionally use d o n 't marijuana or ecstasy become addicts. Donald Lynam of the University of Kentucky, who has studied DARE's effects, says, "Once that happens, they feel like they've been lied to, and reject the whole message." Those quotes come from a very recent story in the Detroit News. However, there are similar find­ ings in news stories across the 1990s and probably before. DARE's trick is this: Whenever a new series of scientifically valid studies shows that DARE is with­ out effect, they make cosmetic changes to the program and pre­ tend that the studies are outdat­ ed DARE has been doing this since 1983, when it was invented the Los Angeles Police by I Vpartment, and it now teaches about 36 million students in as many as 50 countries, including the most school districts 1 nited States. in DARE's behavior is analogous to the heads of Enron and WorldCom claiming that they've changed their accounting prac­ tices and so should get raises rather than prison terms. We don't buy that line in the market; but governments, which are always spending other people's money, buy it consistently. When traud happens in the market, i < 'in parties collapse and criminals go to jail. When fraud is commu­ ted by governments, criminals get multi million dollar grants and even more of our productive effort is wasted. Capitalism is the worst eco­ nomic system, except for all the others. The major alternatives make the same mistakes, but then entrench and preserve them per­ manently. Capitalism allows for mistakes to be corrected and v nmes to be punished. That can't be said for the alternatives. Register is a philosophy graduate student THE FIRING LINE Dear ion (Apgar) In reply to Jon Apgar ( “ Silly lib era ls,’' The Firing Line, Aug 23): First, no one in the Bush adm inistration has been able to connect Saddam Hussein to the al-Qaida terrorist network or to Osama bin Laden so it's hard to relate the “War on Terrorism ” with a war against Iraq. Neither has anyone in the Bush administration been able to m uster any evidence that Iraq p ossesses either nuclear or biological weapons. Yes, they used to have some chem ­ ical weapons, but those were all destroyed before the last UN weapons inspector left the country in 1998. Second, Saudi Arabia is denying us use of their territo ­ ry for staging military opera­ tions against Iraq. Afghanistan and Pakistan are both politi­ cally unstable — we keep both rulers propped up. Iran and " ftussia both have economic cooperation treaties with Iraq which means it’s unlikely they will support any action against Iraq. This means an invasion of Iraq will have to almost entirely be supported from the sea. Add to that the fact that if Hussein does have nuclear weapons he will almost assuredly use them against Israel, the only target within reach. Ariel Sharon — another madpian — has already stated if Iraq uses nuclear weapons against Israel then Israel will respond in kind. Finally, I suppose the main purpose of my letter was not to point out President Bush’s stupidity so much as it was to point out his advisor’s stupidi­ ty. But since it seems at least some of our future lawyers read at a second-grade level, Mr. Apgar, what I regard as stupid is having one of our top foreign policy advisors going on the national radio of the only ally besides Israel (that would be the United Kingdom, Apgar, if you’re still with me) who might support us in our “war" and telling a much less enthusiastic British public that the main reason to attack Hussein is because he is an “evil man." Those were the actual words of a conservative Republican — Condoleeza Rice. So much for the conser vatives’ ability to muster a strong factual argument! Now, Mr. Apgar, 1 await your next idi­ otic bout of invective in which you accuse me of racism because Rice happens to be an African-American woman. Thank you, Dear Jon (Apgar), part II Patriot Points to you for get­ ting our president’s back. Perhaps your namesake stepped to far in calling for a regime change in his Firing Line letter too which you com­ mented. Making fun of Bush has indeed become cheap and pathetic. It is cheap because it is just so gosh-darn easy, and, really, that is why it has become pathetic. It is definitely becom­ ing scary, considering the seri­ ousness of the lingering ven­ tures President Bush has stumbled into considering. Please provide some solid reasoning to contradict the idea that President Bush has managed to attain an appropri­ ate international image to be made fun of at the 5-year-qld level. I think we should joke around about it while we still can. I'm sorry if your conscience has made you take political criticism to heart. And why did .you only include the staff (and not the faculty) in your dub­ bing of the UT regime? Kurt Jackson Undeclared junior Jon Pearson UT staff/alum The Zionist madia bias On Wednesday, Aug. 14, The Daily Texan carried two editori­ al cartoons addressing issues surrounding the so-tailed “War on Terrorism." In addition, it carried two pieces on the planned invasion of Iraq, one on Israel’s decision to expel Palestinian resistance fighters (or “terrorists" as the piece called them), one on a bomb­ ing near the United Nations guest house in Kabul and another on the Afghan govern­ ment’s plan to release sus­ pected al-Qeida fighters. The last one even went out of its way to try and link Islam to terrorism by including a photo­ graph of a faceless prisoner clutching a Quran and made reference to “ 50 bearded pris­ oners ... reading the Quran and praying." With this obvious interest in all things related to terrorism, it was surprising, to say the least, that I saw no word of the doctor arrested in Florida over the weekend after allegedly stockpiling a massive stash of arms which included a .50-caliber machine gun, sniper rifles, hand grenades and enough explosives to level a building (including fully assembled bombs, with timers already attached). Authorities also found a hit list of targets he allegedly planned to destroy throughout America. He was arrested only after a relative phoned in a dom estic violence charge. Heaven only knows what terror he may have wrought otherwise. It is curious this story of what could have been the next Timothy McVeigh or Osama bin Laden received no mention in The Daily Texan. I can only hope this oversight had more to do with The Daily Texan’s incompetence than the fact the hit list consisted mainly of Islamic targets or that the doc tors name was Goldstein rather than Mohammed or Najjir.

System^JT-Tyler r a n l g b ^ ART FOR SALE . . r — ,2002 By Todd Hlltlard Daily Texan Staff Data from the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board shows students at UT-Tyler have a better chance of receiving instruction from a tenured facul­ ty member during their fresh­ man and sophomore years than students at UT-Austin. tenure-track UT-Tyler had the highest per­ centage of freshman and sopho­ more classes taught by tenured professors, or according to the THECB. UT- Tyler President Rod Mabry said the news reflects the school's deep commitment to under­ graduate education. "UT-Tyler is one of the «aca­ demically strong universities in Texas, and we have outstanding faculty," Mabry said in a state­ ment. "We believe that no uni­ versity in the state provides a better undergraduate education for its students than UT-Tyler." According to THECB's data, out of 8,717 semester credit hours undertaken by freshmen and sophomores at UT-Tyler, 6,325, or 73 percent, were taught by tenured or on-track tenured professors. Ray Grasshoff, public infor­ for THECB, mation officer explained that supplemental funding from the Legislative Budget Board is awarded based on those percentages. - Despite placing in the bottom four of Texas public universities, UT-Austin .received the largest bonus at $6.6 million. UT-Tyler received only $471,304 because the bonuses are based on the actual number of hours taught by tenured instructors, not the percentages. Paul Meyer, director of aca­ demic affairs on the university level for THECB, said the data could be misleading. "This information does not give a good basis for comparison of universities," Meyer said. "UT-Tyler has only recently begun admitting freshmen and sophomores; it was formerly a two-year school." UT President Larry Faulkner stressed that both the university and Texas A&M University have different principles for granting tenure than most other public schools in die state. "We have a high number of classes taught by faculty with professional credentials who this aren't because they aren't on track to be tenured," Faulkner said. "We reserve tenure for faculty who considered for participate in both research and teaching; a lot of the faculty w ithout tenure would be tenured elsewhere in the state."' Jim Vick, UT vice president for student affairs, said that some undergraduate classes are taught by non-tenured faculty as part of the university's grad­ uate curriculum. "We are a large research institu­ tion with a very laige graduate program," Vick said. 'Tart of this program involves teaching class­ es." "The Vick said assistant instructors are always graduate students and that they do a great job. [assistant instructor] position is a necessary and important part of the graduate program," Vick said. "We rarely have concern from students; concern is usually worry from parents." Faulkner said he brought inclusion of professional-level non-tenured faculty into consid­ eration in talks with Lt. Gov. Bill Ratliff, who rallied for the finan­ cial incentives. "In private talks, he seemed to be in support of such a change," "The policy / fe . Faylki r said. currently the same." Ratliff could not be reached for comment. City manager: Kyle faced difficulties with population, water supply system p l a n n in g , FROM 1 one county," said Beverly Silas, executive director of Envision Central Texas. "Land usage has no jurisdictional boundaries." As an example of what can go wrong with a rapid increase in population, fast growth in the city of Kyle led to the over­ pumping of the Barton Spiings District of the Edwards Aquifer. The city pum ped 113 million gallons out of the aquifer over the past fiscal year, 60 million gallons more than w hat the city's two permits allowed. Tom Mattis, city manager, said the population of Kyle grew from 2,300 to 5,300 between 1995 and 2000, and the dty now has a pop­ ulation around 10,000. Mattis said the dty also faced problems with its water supply system, and the Edwards Aquifer was out of service to the dty for two months. "Those three things kind of came together in an untimely manner," he said. Floyd L. Marsh, general man- ager of the Barton Springs / Edwards Aquifer Conservation District said the district has not determined an exact course of action. He said they will negoti­ ate with the city manager to determine the amount of a possi­ ble fee, new conservation guide­ lines, or ordinance changes. "I don't believe there has been an excess [pumping] of this magnitude before," Marsh said. s ie Daily Texan online at w w w .d a ilyte xa n o n lin e .co m |Hot, Fast and Easy. Fraternity population grows yearly RUSH, FROM 1 The IFC, which sponsored the event, governs 24 nationally regis­ tered fraternities on campus. "Our numbers have continued to grow each year," Perry said. "I'm definitely excited by the amount of people who are show­ ing interest." Last year, about 600 students registered online with Texas- greeks.com, an online database that allows fraternities to sift through applicant profiles prior to the rush season. Approx­ imately 520 of those who regis­ tered accepted the bids they were given, Perry said. You can tell pretty quickly whether someone's going to be an asset to the fraternity or whether they're going to be a sore thumb," said Kevin Andrews, a member of Phi Delta Theta frater­ nity. "You don't want someone who's going to sit in their room all year and do nothing." J.D. Turner, a Phi Delta Theta assistant rush captain, agreed that first impressions are of con­ siderable importance during the recruitment process. 'From a 10-minute conversa­ tion, you can learn an awful lot about a person," Turner said. Several fraternity representa­ tives said that the Greek system is too often dismissed as nothing more than a coalition of drinking clubs. "One thing guys don't usually think about when they think about joining a fraternity is disci­ pline, said Matt Owen, a rush captain for Beta Theta Pi fraterni­ ty. "You learn to manage your time better — it's like a strict reg­ imen. Otherwise, if I wasn't in a fraternity, I'd get up at 4 p.m., I'd skip all of my classes, and I'd end up just drinking with my friends all day." Matt Mackowiak, IFC presi­ dent, cited mandatory study hours and community service projects as underreported, posi­ tive aspects of fraternity life. "It's unfortunate that people who aren't in the Greek system view the Greek system only in terms of their parties and social events," Mackowiak said. After 9/11, a lot of fraternities volunteered for the Red Cross, and IFC co-sponsored Orange Santa in 2001 to buy presents for needy children." This year, Phi Delta Theta will raise funds for the Lou Gehrig Foundation, members said. Beta Theta Pi will work with Children's Bum Awareness and Surewalk, the student government-spon­ sored program to walk students home at night. UT Athletic Director DeLoss Dodds, the keynote speaker at the event, said that joining a fra­ ternity was the best thing that happened to him in college. "I'd be a butcher in Riley, Kan., if not for the fraternity system," Dodds said. "I'd be a good one, but that's what I'd be." GREAT FOR CLASS, K ITH FOB Cimk ■ ■ ■ H B H H H The North Face CLASS.

McClintock was moved from defensive end to tight end in the spring, but he may still play some defensive end. It will depend on Thornton's condition the rest of the week. Also, junior Brett Robin and true freshman Selvin Young are battling for the backup tailback slot behind Cedric Benson. ^ i . attention to the media hype he and the Longhorns get. But there's just one thing he doesn't understand. “People like to hate on me, but then I'm on their lists," Simms said. "They say I stink, but they put me as their top three quarter­ backs or something." Simms is currently listed as one of the top quarterbacks in the country by several media outlets; and he has also graced the cover of many preseason publications. Simms' haters Inside the bubble Senior quarterback Chrié Simms said he tries not to pay The Indoor Practice Facility at Frank Denius Athletic Fields was blown into a bubble on Saturday, pacing way for the inside to be completed. The facility is not scheduled to be finished until November, as the workers still need to insulajte and air condition the bubble and the turf field, which is one simi­ lar to those at Kansas and Oklahoma State, needs to be put down. Texas head coach Mack Brown said the facility is a plus in recruiting, and it will allow Texas to become accommodated to turf during the week before a game that will be played on a similar surface. Simms ready to get started This year, more than ever before, quarterback Chris Simms is ready to get the season started. Why the anticipation? Simms said with it being his senior year and with the team being ranked so high, he's ready. "This is probably about as excited as I ve been in life for any­ thing, Simms said. "There's a certain vibe. The team feels this may be our year. "The way the year ended [last season], I m excited to get a new one rolling," Simms said. Texas jumps FSU in AP poll Coorfaor brings new look to UF By Eddie Pells Associated Press GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Ed Zaunbrecher knew he wasn't at Marshall anymore when some­ one unexpectedly stopped him on the street a few months ago. ' So, is it true you're gonna run the option?" the glowering Florida fan asked. No, Zaunbrecher reassured the fan, he has no intention of run­ ning the option at Florida. Still, every play the new Gators offen­ sive coordinator runs will be under scrutiny this season. Because, while Ron Zook may be replacing Steve Spurrier on the sideline, Zaunbrecher is the one taking over Spurrier's offense. It's hard to think of a more daunting task in coaching. Nobody called more exciting "ball plays" than Spurrier over his dozen years in charge. By the end of his stay it wasn't just win­ ning to Florida fans, it was how their Gators won — and nobody made it more fun than Spurrier and his Fun 'N' Gun. important that was Modest, with a dry wit and a Lettermanesque gap between his front teeth, Zaunbrecher says he to out-Spurrier doesn't need Spurrier to be successful at Florida. "I enjoy coaching football," he said. I don't need to be known as a guru or anything like that." The 52-year-old former center at Middle Tennessee State insists he will not be overwhelmed bv this job. He has coached at high-profile schools like Purdue, Michigan State and LSU, and worked with top quarterbacks, too. Chad Pennington and Byron Leftwich are the most recent, both at Marshall. In 1984, Zaunbrecher met Zook. As luck had it, the two were paired alphabetically at a golf tournament for Southeastern Conference coaches. Zook was defensive at backs Tennessee, and Zaunbrecher was LSU's offensive coordinator at the time. coach A friendship began, and when Zook got the job in January, he immediately chose Zaunbrecher to be his offensive coordinator. Zook was impressed with Zaunbrecher s far-reaching resume, and equally wooed by the numbers Marshall put up last year with Zaunbrecher running the offense — third in the nation in offense; third in passing; eighth in scoring; second in pass eff iciency.

Miami and Oklahoma, the last two national champions, hope to wind up playing in the Fiesta Bowl in January for another title. For now, they'll share in a little history. Without playing a game, Oklahoma moved into a tie with the Hurricanes for No. 1 in The Associated Press Top 25 poll. It's just the fourth tie in the 66-year history of the poll. "Some people must have snuck in to see how well we played in practice last week," said Sooners coach Bob Stoops, whose team last held the No. 1 spot after winning the 2000 national championship. Oklahoma can thank Florida State, which began the season at No. 3, but fell to fifth this «week after having to hold on for a 38- 31 victory over Iowa State on Saturday night. Miami, which also hasn't played a game this season, and Oklahoma each received 27 first- place votes and 1,758 points in the media poll. Texas and Tennessee moved up one spot apiece, to third and fourth, respectively. In the USA Today /ESPN poll of coaches, Miami remained followed by Texas, No. 1, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Florida State. The last tie in the AP poll came Oct. 18, 1992, between Washington and Miami. The other ties were Nov. 27, 1939 (Texas A&M and Southern California) and Oct. 27, 1941 (Minnesota and Texas). teams This marks the first time the two sharing No. 1 received the same number of first-place votes. The Sooners, ranked No. 2 in the preseason poll, open their season Friday at Tulsa. Miami begins defense of its national championship Saturday night at home against Florida A&M. Stoops doesn't give much weight to early season rankings and projections. He pointed out that his Oklahoma team started the 2000 season ranked well down in the polls but wound up winning the national title. "I'm confident our players understand, as much as any­ thing here, you earn your way," he said. "We determine our fate, nobody else."

Alex Rodriguez hit his major league-leading 46th home run on an eephus pitch from El Duque, but everything else went the New York Yankees' way Monday in a 10-3 the Texas Rangers. romp over Alfonso Soriano hit his 31st homer, setting a team record for second basemen, and drove in three runs. Jason Giambi reached 100 RBIs, Derek Jeter made a head-first slide home to score his 100th run, and Bemie Williams hit three more singles, extending his hitting streak to 17 games. A crowd of 42,785 turned out for the last date at Yankee Stadium before Friday's strike deadline. There were only few signs of dis- satisfaction, including banners that popped out during the sev­ enth-inning stretch that read "U Strike and We're Gone Forever" and "Next Home Game 9/2?" In the eighth, two fans holding anti-strike signs walked around the lower deck. They drew no noticeable reaction!. All around, it was a festive afternoon as the AL East leaders feasted on Kenny Rogers (12-7). He gave up a career-high 13 hits in five-plus innings — one more hit would've tied the Rangers record shared by Oil Can Boyd and Bobby Witt. The Yankees wound up with a split of the four-game set and fin­ ished 4-3 in the season series, against the last-place Rangers. (7-3) Hernandez coasted through die early innings, blank­ ing Texas on three singles until the sixth. He kept the Rangers off-balance, drawing a laugh from Rodriguez in the opening inning when he threw a blooper pitch for a ball. Then in the sixth, Hernandez floated up a 52 mph pitch that Rodriguez took for a ball. El Duque derided to come back with the same pitch, and Rodriguez timed it perfectly and launched it over the , left-field fence. I lemandez glanced at Rodriguez while he trotted between second and third, and A-Rod looked back when he was halfway home. Rafael Palmeiro, who also watched a blooper in the first inning, followed Rodriguez's solo shot with his 484th career home run, connecting on a fastball.. Soriano's solo homer broke the team mark for a second baseman of 30 set by Joe Gordon in 1940. Soriano also hit a two-run sin­ gle to cap a five-run sixth. Earlier usamu Hooaa/Associated.Press Alex Ro riguez hit his leagu e-leadin g 46th home run In a 10-3 loss. in the inning, Jeter dashed home from third, beating catcher Bill Haselman's diving tag on Jorge Posada's nubber. Jeff Weaver finished up with three innings for his second save, striking out five. The Yankees scored one run off Rogers in four straight innings to take a 4-0 lead. MLB Atlanta at Pittsburgh...6 p.m., TBS San Diego at Houston...7 p.m., POXSW Baltimore at Texas...7 p.m. TW Ch. 77 TENNIS U.S. Open 6 p.m. USA BRIEFS 10 a.m., ~ Francis signs four-year deal with Rockets HOUSTON — Stevie Franchise soon will be cashing paychecks befit ting his nickname. Steve Rands, heading into the final year of a four-year, $14.1 million contract with the Houston Rockets, has agreed to a six-year extension at the NBA maximum, which should be between $80 million and $90 million once the new salary cap is estab­ lished. “They’re willing to put that signifi­ cant amount of money on the line that we can get some results," Rands said Monday. “When a lot of guys get healthy, I think we can have one of those seasons [this year] that well always remember." Injury-plagued Anderson going to New England FOXBORO, Mass. — Former NFC rushing leader Jamal Anderson and the Super Bowl champion New England Patriots are about to join forces. “We’ve agreed in principle” to a contract, said James Sims, Anderson’s agent, said Monday. “It’s looking pretty good.” The Patriots, who are pleased with their three running backs, wouldn’t confirm an agreement with the unrestricted free agent who spent eight seasons with Atlanta. Team spokesman Stacey James cited a team policy of not com­ menting on agreements or sign­ ings unless and until they are sub­ mitted to the league and approved. Sims, reached at his Oakland office, declined to discuss details of the agreement. After reaching the Super Bowl in the 1998 season and suffering serious knee injuries in two of the next three years, Anderson could practice with the Patriots on Tuesday. Bengals give Fierotte the starting nod at quarterback CINCINNATI — Gus Frerotte has won the job that nobody keeps for very long. The Cincinnati Bengals chose Frerotte as their starting quarter­ back on Monday, adding to their legacy of bringing in a new passer for the start of each season. They’ve opened each of the last five seasons with a different quar­ terback and wound up with the lowest-rated passer in the NFL each of the last two years. Coach Dick LeBeau picked Frerotte over incumbent Jon Kitna and Akili $mith, who was sup­ posed to be the Bengals' quarter­ back for a decade or more when they made him their Ño. 1 draft pick in 1999. 2004 Olympic organizers move boxing venue ATHENS, Greece — Olympic organizers and international boxing officials agreed Monday to move the boxing venue for the 2004 Games because of delays and ris­ ing costs. Instead of building a planned seaside arena, the new site will be in a congested residential neigh­ borhood. The Greek government first announced the shift in July but needed the approval of the International Amateur Boxing Association. The agreement was reached in Lausanne, Switzerland, but was announced by organizers in Athens.

TDCJ has admitted that guards in the McConnell and Moore units listened to confidential discus­ sions between inmates and their attorneys, violating corrections policy. The criminal justice agency also conceded that some of its units do not provide enough visi­ tation booths for attomey-client discussions. But in other cases, officials said violations of attomey-client privi­ lege did not occur. The ACLU dis­ puted this and said it has docu­ ments to support its claims. "They' re just taking the word of the unit-level people," said Yolanda Torres, litigation director for the Texas ACLU's Prison and Jail Accountability Project. 'It's disap pointing that TDCJ would deny things." Carl Reynolds, TDCJ general counsel, said the ACLU had a "quibble" with some specific facts. Tor example, in one instance I don't know if they're going to contest this — they asserted that in one unit, people were standing close enough to attorneys to over­ hear conversations," Reynolds said. "So far, nobody has admitted to that, so we don't have any independent confirma­ tion of it." their Reynolds confirmed the eaves- drapping Aug. 19 in his written response to an ACLU investiga­ tion, after the civil rights group sent Reynolds the results of its investigation July 17, giving hints of a possible lawsuit. Reynolds said he does not expect a lawsuit, but according to Meredith Rountree, director of the accountability project, the poten- tial for litigation remains. "We are certainly not at a place where we want to march into court," she said, adding that TDCJ generally has been cooperative. TDCJ stopped recording attor- ney-client phone calls after a March 29 memo set down a new policy not to eavesdrop, but word apparently has not reached every­ one, Reynolds said. It takes a while to turn the ship around," he said. At present, the ACLU is prepar­ ing a response to Reynolds' letter. The organization will produce evidence that TD CJ is receiving inaccurate information from cor­ rectional facilities, Rountree said. For instance, Reynolds' let­ ter asserts th at at the Ramsey I Unit, "there h as been no attor­ ney/offender ph on e calls since the new p o lic y went into effect." But documents provided to The Daily Texan show that attorney David O'Neil requested to call his client at the Ramsey Unit in July and August. The ACLU also has said that in many cases, TDCJ units did not provide adequate space or arrange­ ments for attomey-client conversa­ tions. Torres said die even saw Christmas decorations stored in an attomey-client visitation booth at the Michael unit — a claim TDCJ denies. "IFs a big system. We've got 104 prison units across the state," said Larry Todd, a TDCJ public infor­ mation officer. "W e try to be per­ fect, but we don't always achieve perfection." V isit the Dmlly Texan online at www.dailytexanonline.com EMPLOYMENT Study: Taxpayers lose in federal logging program By Katherine Sayre Daily Texan Staff Logging on publicly owned forests in Texas may cost taxpay­ ers millions of dollars, according to a recent study by two environ­ mental groups that counters the U. S. Forest Service's arguments that timber programs on those lands reap profits for the state. Economists from the Ecology and Law Institute researched pub­ lic financial information from the forestry service for about 10 months. The report states that tax­ payers lost between $26 million and $32 million on the federal log­ ging program between 1988 and 1999. "This report exposes die mis­ leading accounting practices of the U.S. Forest Service," said Ayelet Hines, Sierra Club spokes­ woman. The report states that the Forest Service's accounting system, Timber Sale Program Information and Reporting System, did not report costs of pest management, con­ trolled burning and monitoring endangered species. TSPIR was dis­ continued as an accounting system for the US. Forest Service in 1999. "It doesn't account for these costs so the Forest Service can say they are making profits," Hines said. The report also claims that while the Forest Service has said it created 19,000 jobs, these jobs and the revenue they generated for regional economies would have been developed by logging indus­ tries from the private sector had the federal logging program not been in place. Gay Ippolito, spokeswoman for the U.S. Forest Service in Texas, said the Forest Service has not been losing die taxpayers' money. She said die service has been mak­ ing profits, 25 percent of which were returned to the communities around the national forests. In 2000, 12 East Texas counties received $4.6 million from the service. Ippolito said the report is false because it counts costs that were not part of the timber sale pro­ gram. "They counted costs of doing soil erosion work on our national grasslands," she said. "The grass­ lands are miles and miles and miles away from the timber, and if s inaccurate and flawed to count that as a timber program cost." researched John Talberth, the head econ­ omist who the report, said the study is factual because it uses figures provided by the Forest Service specifically on the timber program. He said the researchers used nationally accepted accounting methods, making the statistics more accu­ rate than the Forest Service's own reports. The report comes amid die con­ troversy on how to control wild­ fires in national forests. President Bush introduced his plan Aug. 22 to fund the timber industry's thin­ ning of national forests to avoid fires. The plan also indudes restric­ tions on litigation that environmen­ tal groups can use to slow down the thinning of forests.

Tuesday, August 27, 2 0 0 2 An Austin concert to Cher-ish With an injured opening act, Cher made the most of herJull-length set on her fareivell tour stop at the Frank Erwin Center Saturday night By Matt Dentler Daily Texan Staff U l i a M IN J O u . More Broadway extravaganza than pop concert, Cher's packed- house performance at the Frank Erwin Center Saturday night was a blinding spectacle. Descending from die venue's ceiling by way of a chandelier, the pop diva opened her set with U2's I Still Haven't F ound W hat I m Looking For" an obvious ode to this, her "farew ell" tour. Surrounded by intricate sets and choreographed dancers, every song was a different journey into a piece of Cher history. the last Accompanying every song was video projection of Cher, either in present-day form or vintage moments from few decades of her career. The video montages were timed perfectiy with each song: Cher would hit the nght words and right notes, timing it precisely with a video image of the same song, only performed 30 years ago on network television. She performed her early single All I Really Want To Do" wearing’ former husband and singing part­ ner Sonny Bono's famous fur vest. She breezed through an energetic version of her current hit single Song For The Lonely" shielded by a gaggle of talented dancers, who made their way through most ot the show with the kind of stage ‘'kills only found in a flamboyant I as Vegas revue. Cher threw in a little Texas swagger with "Just Like Jesse _ Atax Jones/Daily Texan Staff Only the set design was more extravagant than Cher at the Erwin Center. James," as well as getting the crow d hyped on a com pletely retro m edley th at featu red hits such as "Half-Breed" and "Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves." Cher was in top form all around, her voice reaching every note and her lavish costume changes spark­ ing almost as much notice as the songs they followed. It was a completely fun and entertaining spectacle, and prob­ ably would have been complete­ ly lost on anyone who only knows Cher as the woman from Moonstruck or the "I Got You Babe babe. But it was appropri­ ate to have a show for the fans. After all, it is supposedly her last tour, and there were plenty of Cher fans in attendance. In fact, the sheer energy and enthusiasm of the audience made the show much more exciting. Even when Cher w asn't performing, the audience was dancing and lov­ ing the night. "Due to injury," scheduled opener Cyndi Lauper d id n 't perform , instead was replaced so m ew h at by — actually funny — com edian Tommy Drake. Nevertheless, the absence of Lauper didn't prevent the night from proving that Cher fans just want to have fun. BRIEFS N a M i U m n f i ^ ■ W M m r t h h p l t m M w ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — A rap concert that was canceled last week because of con- cérns about violence went on Sunday, but N.0.R.É and the other two headlining acts never took the stage. About 2 0 0 people showed up for the concert at the Sandcastle Stadium — well below the promoter’s goal of 7,000. Several local rap acts played, but the three featured ac*s — N.O.R.E., Styles and Khia — did not perform, The Press of Atlantic City reported in Monday’s editions. The show was canceled last Monday after a police memo indicated that N.O.R.E, also known as Noreaga, has a sso ­ ciations with the Bloods street gang. The city and the Atlantic City Surf, the baseball team that leases the city-owned sta­ dium, expressed concerns about potential violence. On Friday, a federal judge allowed the concert to pro­ ceed after the city and con­ cert promoters struck a deal for increased security at the 5,900-seat minor league baseball stadium. British rock concert rioters go home seeing stars LEEDS, England — Several hundred people rioted at the end of a weekend music festi­ val, burning toilets and attack­ ing police, the West Yorkshire force said Mondays , Police said 200 officers were called in after violence broke out just after midnight, as the Leeds Festival drew to a close. More than 50,000 people had attended the two-day gath­ ering in northern England, which included performances by Pulp, The Strokes, Ash, Foo Fighters and Guns N ’ Roses. Police said garbage bins and temporary toilet blocks were set on fire and officers were pelted with bottles and debris. One policeman was taken to the hospital with a broken nose. Earlier, a 19-year-old man was found dead in a tent at the fes­ tival, but police said the death did not appear suspicious. Compiled from Associated Press reports her fans in Austin certainly did at Saturday night’s concert. i pe.?ed Wl,h 5,111 Haven'* Found I'm Looking For; Alox Jones/Daily Texan Staff Not another teen pop hip-hop concert Thursday show at the Frank Enrn Cenia By Brittany Teal Daily Texan Staff It w as Friday night and the room w as filled to capacity with teeny-bopp er hormones.

Headlined by 15- year-old rapper Bow Wow, the concert also featured pop bands B2K, IMX (formerly Immature) and TG4. Young as they were, this was not your typical teen show.

As O m arion's sweet tenor filled the arena, so did his well- defined abs, which garnered as much attention, if not more, than their songs. The show-stopper was h ead­ liner Bow Wow, who bungee- jumped his way onto the stage for an electrifying show. Between rapping scrngs, like "Basketball" and "Take You Flome," Bow Wow astounded the audience w ith his acrobatics and stage flair.
