g O BSERVER Tuesday, September 19, 1995 • Vol. XXVII No. 22 I I11- INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPER SERVING NOTRE DAME AND SAINT MARY'S Americorps gives ACE $500,000 despite cuts * : wt | Scully By SAMANTHA SNYDER News Writer Notre Dame’s Alliance for Catholic Education (ACE) was recently awarded a $500,000 grant from Americorps, a branch of the Clinton Adminis tration’s Corporation for National Service. Last year, Notre Dame was one of 11 universi ties in the nation chosen from 370 applicants to receive a grant from the newly-formed national service agency. This year’s renewed award for the ACE teacher training program at Notre Dame represents a 75 percent increase over the pre vious year’s grant. According to Lou DelFra, as sociate director of ACE, the substantial award has made it possible for ACE to provide each participant in the pro gram with $4,275 which they can use to pay off student loans or defray the costs of further graduate education. Sister Lourdes Sheehan, di rector of ACE, recognizes that the increase in this year’s grant despite Congress’ intent to cut education funding “is a tribute to the impact our young teach ers have had on the lives of thousands of at—risk school children in South Bend and throughout the southern U.S.” ACE was founded in 1994 by Fr. Timothy Scully, Notre Dame’s vice president and as sociate provost, and Sean Mc- Graw, former associate direc tor of ACE, for the purpose of providing teachers for resource-poor parochial schools in cities throughout the southern and southeastern United States. The program also offers the opportunity for recent gradu ates from Notre Dame, Saint Mary’s, and other selective uni versities to receive intensive teacher training while serving in Catholic communities. After completing an initial summer training program in which they spend time working in South Bend public schools, participants spend one year teaching in both elementary and secondary schools in the 13 dioceses served by ACE. A second summer of training at Notre Dame in cooperation with the University of Portland is followed by an additional year of serving as full-time educators. The cumulative two years of training fulfill the requirements for a master’s in education degree from the University of Portland. The fact that teachers live to gether in small communities enables them to support each other and share the challenges and benefits of their new teaching experiences. They also come together twice dur ing each school year for retreat-workshops designed to help them evaluate their mis- see ACE / page 4 The Observer/Brian Hardy We love you, Lou!

Louganis to visit ND, Johnson: spark AIDS awareness The Observer/Brian Hardy Phillip Johnson, Professor at the University of California at Berkeley, corrects the distorted perception of evolution as portrayed by the media in his lecture at DeBartolo last night. By KELLY FITZPATRICK News Writer Just months after hundreds of Notre Dame faculty, staff, and students marched in protest against the administra tion’s refusal to recognize Qays and Lesbians of Notre Dame and Saint M a r y ’s College (GLND/SMC), a noted homosexual and AIDS victim has been invit ed to speak on campus. Olympic medalist and AIDS patient Greg Louganis will ap pear at Stepan tonight at 7:30. He is sponsored by the Student Union Board, Student Activities, and Student Government. This follows the more recent resolution passed by the Amer ican Sociological Association which showed the group’s op position to the prohibition of the use of campus space for GLND/SMC meetings and denial of recognition by the University, The presence of the Olympic athlete on campus does not, however, indicate an increased tolerance toward the homosex ual community on the part of the administration, according to Julie Wallman of the SUB. The event was planned to help show that the students are concerned about issues such as AIDS and homosexuality. “We program events for stu dents,” said Wallman, “not for what the administration wants to see.” Though Louganis is appear ing on the initiative of the Stu dent Union Board, GLND/SMC is very supportive of Louganis’ presence at Notre Dame. “It definitely represents a growing awareness among stu dents and student leaders on issues of AIDS and homosexuality,” said GLND/SMC Co-chair John Blandford. According to Blandford, it is the hope of GLND/SMC that Louganis’ appearance on cam pus will generate discussions about HIV and AIDS and the underlying questions dealing with sexuality that these issues initiate.

Johnson, a critic of the neo- Darwinist theory of evolution, spoke last night in DeBartolo Hall in a lecture entitled “Darwinism on Trial ” in which he stressed the need for society to personally evaluate the scientific debate on Darwinism. “It is necessary and proper for society, as a whole, to audit the books of a profession that claims to have so much author ity,” stated Johnson. In order to make the theory of evolution more appealing to society, a “caricature of the evolution debate” is presented by the media as well as in literature which seems to pro mote the idea that the belief in a divine and beneficent Creator can be reconciled with the idea of evolution. “But it is not the case that evolution is a process that can be regarded as God’s way of creating,” stated Johnson who believes that evo lution has been presented in a misleading manner in order to garnish mass support. He believes that this “carica ture” also asserts three unfounded claims which distort the perception of evolution and make it difficult to see the flaws in the theory of evolution. These claims are that evolution is “the extrapolation of what see DARWIN/ page 4 Louganis Evolution misleading

19 8 0 ’s w hen the gu ita rs sounded big, d isto rted an d loud, an d m en like R andy R hoads and Eddie V an H alen ru led the ea rth , th e re w as a code am ong m usicians.

In th e good old days, bu rgeon ing seventh- g rad e gu ita rists ca rried - th e ir axes and am plifiers five m iles uphill (both ways) in a driving b lizzard from th e ir hom es an d schools to th e ir gu ita r lessons.

They sp en t countless hou rs w ith th e ir gui­ta r m agazines absorb ing every no te of Yngwie M alm steen’s la test solo or holding on to the vain hope th a t they could som eday rep lica te exactly Kirk H am m ett's th u n d erin g lines from “O ne.” D iagram m ing sen tences w as fo rsaken for learn ing tab la tu re , a lg eb ra for finger-tapping , biology for th e w ah-w ah pedal.

They adm ired h ard w orking idols, gu ita r p layers w ho ded ica ted long, h a rd years of p rac tice to becom e technically proficient w iz­a rd s of the fre tboard . T here w ere gu ita rists w ho subscribed to the classical school of m usiciansh ip , those w ho pledged allegiance to the m ournfu l scales of the blues, o r those w ho p rea ch ed the gospel o f jazz . Not only could these virtuosos p o rtray a fine em otion­al ra n g e w ith th e ir m usic, b u t they w ere — r ig h t dow n th e line, from V an H alen to R hoads — firs t and forem ost good m usicians. It w as a badge of honor to have your p ee rs consider you an excellent m uscian.

Now, a d istu rb ing tren d h as em erged.M any of today’s m uscians, particu la rly gui­

ta r p layers, a re sloppy a t b es t an d seem to enjoy th a t distinction. G uitarists like H ole’s C ourtney Love , Sm ashing P um pkins’ Billy C organ, and G reen Day’s Billy Joe lead ho rd es of today’s m uscians w ho revel in th e ir lack of m uscianship . Amid out o f tune s trm o ­rnings, irrita tin g yelps and pathetic growls, these d isco rdan t six s trin g ers seem to w an t the w orld to know ju s t how bad they really a re , as if they w ere m aking som e som e so rt o f m uscia l s ta tem en t.

W hy?It’s possible th a t som e announcem ent w as

m ade, and they d idn’t tell everyone, bu t .when did it becom e a crim e to asp ire to m usica l excellence? Is it really heinous for a youngste r to w an t to play like a m aste r, like a Jim m y Page, a Eric Clapton, a B.B. King or a Pete T ow nshend? Is it sham efu l to w an t to know th e scales an d m odes an d p rogression inside and out, o r even read m usic? W here have the ded ica ted s tuden ts of m usic as an a r t form d isap p ea red to?

Do these p layers claim no influences? Did they ever p rac tice or take lessons? Do they even know how to tune th e ir in strum en ts?

T he a rg u m e n t can be m ade th a t these p lay­e rs a ttem p t toget by on em otion, b u t this c a rrie s only so far as the inaudib le clam or of th e ir am plifiers. And, besides, bands like U2 and REM have m ade ca re e rs of com bining techn ical proficiency and em otion to provide som e of today ’s m ost stunn ing m usic.

This is no t to say th a t all of today’s m u s­c ians have abandoned m usicianship. Several o f th e neo-dead bands. B etter th a n E rza and P earl Jam com e to m ind, a re a t least a ttem p tin g to ca rry m usical torches.

U nfortunately it still isn ’t enough to stop the h u n g er for the good old days. Too bad R andy Rhoads isn ’t still around.

Letters to the Editor

Football fizzles without fireD ear Editor:Since the loss to N orthw estern , it has com e to

my atten tion th a t m any are questioning the con­fidence and the ta len t o f this football team . As a g rad u a te of 1994 who w ent th rough N otre Dame on an Air Force ROTC S cho la rsh ip an d as one w ho sa t th rough several h ea rtb reak in g losses, I’d like to say th a t is a bunch of bull.

F irst of all, football p layers a re here a t Notre Dame on full ride football scholarsh ips. This is a position m any of us would love to be in, bu t we w ere not b lessed w ith the physical skills. I w an t­ed to go to ND so bad ly , I took my A ir F orce scho larsh ip and the sacrifices th a t w ent w ith it: ex tra classes, leadersh ip labs, m orning PT, m ain ­ta in in g a 3 .0 GPA, and m ost o f all, fou r y ea rs owed to the Air Force. W hile our football p layers do m ak e sa c r if ic e s— th e p u b lic g la re an d the p rac tices—they get m any rew ards: a free ed u ca­tion, publicity, and a following bordering on w or­ship. All th a t is asked in re tu rn is th a t they give every th ing they’ve got on S atu rdays At the end o f ev e ry g am e , th ey sh o u ld be ab le to say to ev e ry o n e in the s ta d iu m they p layed th e b e s t they could.

As for the ta le n t an d the con fidence , th a t ’s no th ing bu t a bunch of excuses for qu itte rs . If ta len t is all th a t m atte rs , explain for m e S tanford in 1990 and 1992 and BC in 1993. W hile it m ay be tru e th a t the ta len t is not as good as in 1990, no team in college football today has th a t kind of ta len t. The ta len t we have is capable of playing w ith anybody—see FSU last year. W hat’s really m issing is th a t b u rn in g fire , the in tensity guys like Z o rich a n d Rice b ro u g h t to ev e ry gam e.W hile no o ffensive lin e m a n m ay be in A aro n T aylor’s class ta len t w ise, none of them w an t it

as bad ly e i th e r . I d o n ’t se e a lin e m a n in the g ro u p w ho w ould go out o f h is w ay to m ake a b lock like A aro n T a y lo r ’s in th e 19 9 4 C otton Bowl th a t sp ru n g Lee B ecton on a touchdow n ru n th a t tied the gam e. A lot of blam e has come Pow lus’ w ay, bu t h e ’s doing every th ing he can. He needs som e help from everyone else.

As far as confidence goes, the Irish should ju s t b e lie v e in th e m se lv e s . O ur p la y e rs w e re a ll rec ru ited for a reason . They play for the m ost s to rie d p ro g ram in college, w orld reknow n for o v e r c o m in g th e o d d s . In 1 9 1 3 , w h e n w e destroyed Army 35-13, they w ere supposed to be the g rea test, yet we som ehow won. In 1993, we played an FSU team th a t w as supposedly the best in co lleg e fo o tb a ll e v e r . W e d o m in a te d th a t gam e m ore th an the sco re ind icates because of sm a rt playing and w anting it m ore. T h a t’s w hat it all com es back to: desire .

I have alw ays been an ND fan and alw ays will be. I ju s t don ’t like w atch ing a team w hen I feel it is not pu tting ou t every th ing it has. P erhaps th e Irish sh o u ld do so m e so u l s e a rc h in g an d m aybe rev iew “R udy” to see w h a t it m e an s to play a t ND. W hen they’re finished w ith tha t, they should take a trip to the College Football Hall of Fam e to see the ND legacy they have inherited . If th ey s till d o n ’t believe in th e m se lv es , they shou ld give up th e ir spo t and le t som eone else try.

All I will ever ask is th a t ou r team be able to leave the field and look a t the Lady on the Dome an d tell H er they’ve played th e ir best and been coached the best.

BRADLEY MAHLUM1994 N D G rad u a te

Before I begin th is resp o n se te Dan O’H a r e ’s r e s p o n s e to C h ris tian e L ikely’s “t i r a d e ” , I would like to point out th a t my e - m a i l isJoseph .B .G allagher.38@ nd.edu. A n y o n e w ho w a n ts to a rg u e w ith me ab o u t my position on d r in k in g s h o u ld e - m a il m e r a th e r th a n w a s te V iew p o in t space.

A lth o u g h M r. O’H a re c o n ­d em n s Ms. Likely for b low ing th in g s o u t o f p r o p o r t i o n , it seem s as though he is the only one guilty of m isin terp reta tion .I th o u g h t h e r le tte r d id n ’t pu t down d rinkers w ith a “God-put- m e-o n -th is -ea rth -to -ju d g e a tti­tu d e”. It seem ed to me th a t she w as ju s t s ta tin g a p e rso n a l (if u n p o p u la r) cho ice of lifestyle: sobriety . W hile O’H are tells us n o t to ju d g e a n y o n e e lse , he ap p ears to be able to judge Ms. Likely ra th e r well.

By c o m p a rin g sm o k in g pot, s h o o t in g h e r o in , o r “ ta k in g sh room s" to ea tin g good food, g e ttin g a back ru b , o r te llin g jo k e s , O’H are d e m o n s tra te s a d a n g e r o u s n a iv e te to w a r d s d ru g s in g e n e ra l. F irs t o f all, th e re is no logical w ay to say th a t shooting hero in is as safe as sm oking pot. Second of all, drink ing a single can of beer or s m o k in g c e r t a in s u b s t a n c e s w on’t kill you, bu t it will im pair your ju d g m e n t and m ay possi­bly lead to h a rd e r things. These su b stan ces may not destroy our lives or kill us im m ediately, but th e y w ill in th e lo n g r u n . O’H a re a ls o s a y s t h a t th e s e substances help you feel better, but goes on to say th a t “a g rea t deal of people ”, including h im ­se lf have had the m ost fun they c a n e v e r r e m e m b e r w ith o u t alcohol. If these incredibly fun tim es can be had w ithout alco­hol, then why d rink it a t all?

Mr. O’H are says th a t he lives in a town w here nine-year-olds c a n h a v e b e e r , m o s t p e o p le have drugs, m ost people sm oke po t be fo re they d rive , an d his doors a re ra re ly locked. W hile

this unnam ed tow n m ay survive in s tea d o f co llap s in g , it is the exception th a t proves the rule. I live in a tow n w hich is m ostly d r u g - f re e , b u t I s t i l l h a v e to lock th e d o o rs to m y c a r an d my h o u se b e c a u s e it is m o re com m on for p eop le u n d e r the in fluence to do som eth ing s tu ­pid r a th e r th a n ‘le a rn to dea l w ith th ings”. In fact, I’ve found th a t my frie n d s h av e found it h a r d e r to “h a n d le s i tu a t io n s ” and to control them selves while u n d e r th e in flu e n ce o f po t o r alcohol. This is not a “tira d e ” or a “ran d o m co n d em n a tio n of a single genera l p rac tice”, this is ju s t the sim ple tru th th a t ab u s­ing drugs and alcohol a re only good fo r a s h o r t tim e . W hen th a t tim e is up, you m ust e ither get m ore of w hatever you w ere on or sink back into depression.

A lthough O’H are fau lts “peo­ple like [Likely]" for the suicide o f h is f r ie n d it s e e m s to m e th a t a lc o h o l i t s e l f m a y h a v e played a bigger p a r t th a n peo­ple seeing him as an alcoholic.

One of my good friends w as killed in a head -on collision w ith a d runk driver. A lthough the d river m ay have been able to “hand le situ ­a t i o n s ” on m o s t n ig h ts , h is in a b ility to h a n d le it on th a t night caused a tragedy w hich is te a r in g b o th h is a n d th e v ic ­tim ’s fam ilies ap art.

I realize th a t both alcoholism a n d s m o k in g a r e in c re d ib ly addictive (as ev idenced by the f a c t t h a t m y g r a n d f a t h e r co u ld n ’t q u it over forty y ea rs , no m a tte r how m uch his family asked him not to).

Constellation Taking it to the top to scope the skies

I like my job. For the la s t few sem esters, I have been a TA for Dr. T erry R ettig’s in troductory astronom y class. Most nights, our job is sim ple. My colleagues and I sit on the roof of N ieuw land, w ait for the s tuden ts to com e up, and tell them th a t it’s too cloudy to see anything. Then we go inside and play “Scorched E arth" on the com puter until Dr. Rettig com es up, a t w hich point we flip over “The Sky” softw are and p re ten d to be fascinated by som e com put­e r-g en e ra ted eclipse or som ething.

Every few w eeks or so, how ever, w e get a c lear night. As you m ay or m ay not have noticed, South Bend is not exactly blessed w ith the m ost p le a sa n t w e a th e r d u rin g the w in te r. Dr. T egler, who taugh t one section of the class la s t year, recalled a y ea r w hen th e r e w a s on ly o n e c le a r n ig h t d u r in g th e e n t i r e m o n th of N ovem ber. So on n ights w hen th e re a re lots of s ta rs , w e get a good crow d.

T h ere a re cu rren tly five TAs on call d u rin g any given school night. T here is Tony, a physics g rad u a ted s tuden t, who ju s t jo ined on . H is c u r r e n t f ie ld o f r e s e a r c h is to o c o m p lic a te d to b e expressed in English and can only be expressed in te rm s of nu m ­bers . He is responsib le for g rad in g m ost of Dr. R ettig ’s hom e- w orks, so he doesn ’t have too m uch tim e to ded icate to the a s tro n ­omy lab. The re s t of us a re seasoned ve teran s and can usually be found in the lab. Rich an d Colleen a re the two m ost sen io r m em ­b ers of th e squad . They have been up on the roof for longer than I have b een a t N otre D am e. Colleen ru n s th e help se ssions an d teaches in the lab. R ichard used to be a biology m ajor, b u t he has recen tly dropped all of his classes so he lives in the labora to ry and plays “S corched E arth ” u n in te rru p te d all day and all night, unless, o r course , Dr. Rettig com es up. Joe is a shady ch a rac te r, an d can best be described as “Irish."

'he Eskimo Pie does taste richer,

but Yo-Cream was such a joke anyway. Before I even got to school, my Freshmen Orientation packet warned us about the perception of Yo-Cream on campus and how every girl was supposed to be addict­ed to it by Christmas.’

The Inside Scoop

Although South Dining Hall has only been offering the vanilla and chocolate varieties of Eskimo Pie frozen yogurt, students can expect the arrival of some newly developed flavors. Data from the first week of school showed that SDH served approximately 1200 students at breakfast, 2800 students at lunch, and 2300 stu­dents at dinner.

During the first week of school, N orth Dining Hall served over 30,000 cones of Yo- Cream. NDH has seen an increase in meals served this year due to more off-campus resi­dents eating on campus, serving about 1600 students at breakfast, 3200 students at lunch, and 3000 students at dinner.

Testosterone:A F em ale ’s Friend or

Foe?By LIZA NYKIELAccent M edical Correspondent

D id you ever w onder why m en an d w om en a re so d ifferen t? W hy is it th a t guys som etim es (not always) ju s t get those tricky m ath p ro b ­

lem s, w h erea s w om en tend to excel in the a r ts and m usic? Why is it th a t m e n ’s chests a re h a ir ie r or b ro a d e r th a n w om en’s? W hy a re w om en’s hips p lagued w ith being n a tu ra lly w ider?

W e all s ta r t out looking the sam e in th e w om b, so why is it th a t my fem ale room m ate doesn ’t resem ble Arnold S chw arzenegger? One an sw e r to all these questions m ay lie in a horm one th a t, qu ite innocen t­ly, floats a ro u n d in m en ’s blood an d m akes the ir bodies do som e ra th e r in te resting tilings. T h a t h o r­m one, the possible source of m any w om en’s p ro b ­lem s, is testoste rone.

M olecularly speaking, the horm one testo ste rone looks very sim ilar to th e cholestero l m olecule, from w hich it is derived. In a ra th e r com plex cascade of events, the cholestero l m olecule is chem ically a lte red in a varie ty of w ays to p roduce testo ste rone , as well as es trogen an d p rogeste rone, the horm ones th a t, equally innocently , float a ro u n d in a w om en’s blood and m akes th e ir bodies do som e ra th e r in te r ­esting th ings too. W hen w e w ere a m ere six w eeks old in o u r m o th e rs’ w om bs, w e all physically ap p e a red the sam e, even though the to-be-m ale em bryos w ere ca rry ing one X and one Y chrom o­som es, w h erea s the to -be-fem ale em bryos w ere c a r ­ry ing two X chrom osom es. In the seventh w eek of developm ent, a sm all section on th a t little Y ch ro ­m osom e called the sex-de term in ing-reg ion stim u­la tes th e production of a p ro te in called the HY-anti- gen.

This p ro te in then beg ins to change the gen ita l tis­sue in to te stes, w hich in tu rn s ta r t p roducing the m ighty testoste rone. W ithout the p resence of te s to s­te rone , th e X X -carrying em bryos, a lm ost by default, (no offense, ladies) s ta r t developing into fem ales .At b irth , the production of te s to ste ro n e in m ales stops un til they re a c h puberty .

Betw een the ages of ten and fourteen , for rea so n s scien tists have yet to rea lly explain , th e production of te s to ste ro n e s ta r ts to skyrocket. It is du rin g those p rec ious days of puberty (w hen you can alm ost sm ell the te sto ste ro n e in the air) th a t the secondary sex ch a rac te ris tic s develop in m ales. This horm one induces new p a tte rn s of h a ir grow th, giving rise to chest an d facial ha ir. The vocal cords th icken , and a s a resu lt, the voice becom es deeper. (M akes you w o n d er how thick M ichael Jack so n ’s co rds a re , now do esn ’t it?)

By stim ula ting the p ro te in fibers th a t m ake up m uscles, high levels o f te sto ste rone also inc rease m uscle m ass in boys, resu lting in m e n ’s b ro ad e r chest and la rg e r legs. Most im portan tly , (from a rep roductive s tandpo in t, th a t is) te s to ste ro n e p ro ­m otes grow th of the te ste s an d associa ted organs. S perm atogenesis, a fancy w ord for the production of sperm , in c reases trem endously a t p u b erty as well. C astration , a sim ilarly fancy w ord for the rem oval of the te stes, re su lts in d ecreased levels o f te s to ste rone an d the absence of developm ent of the afo rem en ­tioned secondary sexual ch arac teris tics . W ith this in form ation in m ind, one h as to w onder w h e th e r P at from S atu rday N ight Live ju s t m ight have been a eunuch .

A lthough the m ajority o f effects th a t testoste rone, causes affect sexual ch arac teris tics , th e re a re som e non -reproductive resu lts o f inc reased levels o f this horm one. T he production of red blood cells, the cells in the blood w hich tra n sp o rt oxygen, is p ro ­m oted by testo ste rone, w hich co rre la te s w ith the h igher oxygen-carry ing capacity to m eet a m a le ’s la rg e r m uscle capacity . In an im als, te s to ste ro n e has been show n to be responsib le for in c reased ag g res­sion, w h ereas in hum ans, re se a rc h e rs a re finding only co rre la tions. F or instance, am ong the p o p u la­tion of m ale p rison in m ates, the h igher the adu lt levels o f testo ste rone , the e a rlie r the age of the ir first a rre s t. M ore crim es a re com m itted by m en a t the age w hen te sto ste ro n e levels a re th e ir h ighest.
