The Department of Homeland Security may have its eyes on Syracuse University in the future.

The Syracuse Police Department has requested city approval to receive an $84,400 grant from the New York state Office of Homeland Security to fund five security cameras that would record activity at the SU steam plant and the Carrier Dome. The proposal has prompted both outcry and approval from affected parties.

“The Syracuse Police Department is just looking to keep us safe,” said Common Councilor-at-Large Bill Ryan, chair of the Public Safety Committee, during Monday’s Common Council meeting.

The current proposal would place surveillance cameras at Pioneer Homes, a government public housing project bordered by East Adams Street, Renwick Avenue, and Taylor and South Townsend streets. The range of the cameras’ sight would reach to the Dome on Irving Avenue and SU’s steam plant

Students in the Master of Social Sci-ence Degree program aren’t the typi-cal graduate students.

They have been military person-nel, high school teachers, government officials and even foreign royalty.

The program, more than 30 years old, allows students to spend a total of only four weeks at Syracuse Univer-sity to obtain their master’s degree. Beyond that, they maintain contact with faculty through e-mails and phone calls as they do their course work.

“There’s a lot of distance-learning programs,” said David Bennett, mer-edith professor of history and faculty chair of the program. “But this is dif-ferent. This gives students a chance to interact with fellow students, meet with faculty members, create a sense of community, while also not aban-

doning their careers.”But in the past year, the number of

student applications to the Master of Social Science Degree program, part of the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs, has declined. The decrease is the result of administra-tive changes at the university, the impact of the recession and conflict overseas that have deterred foreign students.

The program admitted seven stu-dents in the past year, but took 16 students in 2009 and 20 students in 2008, said Elizabeth Ryan, who works in program support for Executive Education Programs in Maxwell, in an e-mail. “We are not seeing the applications like we were before.”

Students in the program can com-plete their degree in as short as 18 months or take up to seven years, so the overall number of students in the program is still high. Since 2008,

when Executive Education Programs took over the program from Uni-versity College, there have been 120 students in the program who gradu-ated, were admitted or are currently continuing their degree, Ryan said.

The administrative switch that took the independent Master of Social Science Degree program from UC to Executive Education Programs hurt the enrollment in the program, said Stephen Webb, professor emeritus of history and one of six faculty mem-bers teaching in the program. He said the program is also still learn-ing how to market itself effectively on the Internet.

The number of foreign students has seen a particular decline.

Before the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, the program had a “tremen-dous array of highly accomplished foreign students,” Webb said.

Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Alsaud

of Saudi Arabia graduated from the Master of Social Science Degree pro-gram and is now the 19th richest man in the world with a net worth of $19.4 billion, according to Forbes.com.

But since Sept. 11, Webb said there haven’t been as many students from abroad attending the program. Most of the students in the program today are U.S. citizens with jobs as second-ary school teachers or serving in a branch of the military, Webb said.

Despite the decline in student applications and enrollment, the Master of Social Science Degree pro-gram is providing its students with flexible courses and personal com-ponents not found in other distance-learning and online courses.

The program was first orga-nized in 1972 by Webb, Bennett and Michael Barkun, professor emeritus of political science, to create a gradu-

France introduces new immigration lawThe French government introduced a new immigra-tion legislation to crack down on illegal immigrants and decrease crime, according to The Washington Post. The legislation makes it easier to get rid of illegal immigrants and take away French nationality from those naturalized fewer than 10 years ago who have been convicted of attacking police officers or governmental officials. The legislation reflects con-cerns of immigrants going to the country to seek work, political freedom and generous social ser-vices, according to The Washington Post. It marks the fourth immigration legislation in the last seven years. Although easy approval in the lower house and Senate is likely, there are objections to the law. Former Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin said it is wrong to connect criminality and immigration, according to The Washington Post.

Pakistan generals against corruption The Pakistan military is pushing to shake up the government, according to The New York Times. Gen. Ashfaq Parvez Kayani scolded President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani for corruption and incompetence. Discontent with the Pakistan government has increased due to the way floods have been handled, which left 20 million homeless, and because of concerns about corrup-tion. Gen. Kayani has demanded some ministers should be dismissed from the 60-member cabinet, but the government has not complied. The Supreme Court is also pushing government about corruption by threatening to take away the president’s immu-nity from prosecution. Military officers stationed in main cities have openly expressed their contempt toward the government, but officials and politicians say the military does not want to take over, accord-ing to The New York Times.

For the first time, women are earning more doctorate degrees than men, as depicted in Syracuse University’s IRP 704: “Quantitative Skills for International Relations,” which has a male to female ratio of 10 to 15. Nationally, 50.4 percent of 2009’s doctorates went to women.

advice earns students free lunch on dps

By Dara McBrideASSt. NewS edItoR

For some students, a lunch at the Goldstein Alumni & Faculty Center is now the cost of a safety tip.

“As long as someone has a good idea or something that might be help-ful to other students and the way we do our business, then I’d be happy to pay for their lunch,” Department of Public Safety Chief Tony Callisto said.

The DPS Lunch with the Chief pro-gram was announced late last week on its website, and the first student to participate contacted DPS on Monday, said DPS Public Information Officer Jennifer Horvath. The student, who DPS could not identify, will be having lunch with Callisto in about a week and a half.

The program invites any student with an idea or concern for DPS to meet Callisto in the Goldstein Alumni & Faculty Center for a lunch of his or her choosing, paid for by Callisto.

Students interested in the program should e-mail Lt. Jill Lentz with their name, SUID number, phone number and three possible times to meet with Callisto for lunch. They do not have to propose their idea beforehand, but Callisto said he hopes it would be a thoughtful and helpful comment about safety on campus.

Callisto said students already con-tact DPS about a variety of concerns, but this will add an opportunity to talk face-to-face. DPS is already avail-able to receive comments or criticism via e-mail or in person at the DPS office.

When Kristi Andersen began her doctoral education in the early 1970s, many looked at her pursuit as a tri-fling endeavor.

“At that point, there was still quite a bit of discrimination against women,” said Andersen, now a political science professor at Syracuse University. “Many graduate programs had quotas and would only accept a few women, and professors frequently talked about how women probably wouldn’t go on to get their degrees, but would drop out to have families.”

But times are changing for women pursuing doctorates. In 2008 to 2009, women earned more doctoral degrees in the United States than men for the first time, according to an analysis of graduate enrollments and degrees from the Council of Graduate Schools. And SU graduate programs followed this trend.

Despite a higher rate of female enrollment in higher education, men had led in obtaining doctorate degrees, according to the study. The major-ity of U.S. college graduates have been women since 1987, according to the Pew Research Center. As of October 2008, they compose 53 percent of U.S. college graduates.

Donald Saleh, vice president for

enrollment management at SU, said he was not surprised by these findings.

“We have witnessed a shift in higher education over the past sev-eral decades,” he said. “For quite a few years, there have been more women than men entering undergraduate pro-grams. In recent years, the ratio has been 56-to-44 or even greater.”

The trend in women receiving doctorates reflects statistics of female enrollment in higher education, Saleh said. Girls are more likely to graduate from high school and more heavily enroll in bachelor’s programs, he said.

The study reported a majority of women did not become doctoral recipi-ents earlier because men dominated career fields like engineering, math and computer science, the fields that typically require doctorates. Only 22 percent of engineering doctorates in 2008 to 2009 was awarded to women and 27 percent for mathematics and computer science. The fields in which women make up a majority are the arts and humanities, health sciences and biological sciences.

The findings were similar for SU, Saleh said.

“At Syracuse, we see more men than women entering Ph.D. programs in the science, math, engineering and technology disciplines,” he said. “In the rest of the university, the number

of women in Ph.D. programs exceeds the number of men.”

Crystal Bartolovich, an associate professor at SU with a doctorate in English, obtained her doctoral degree in the 1980s.

“In English, there have always been somewhat more women than in many other fields, presumably because it was considered a field appropriate to women,” she said.

Despite being in a field composed mainly of women, Bartolovich said very few females in the early 20th cen-tury would have completed doctorates. She said this changed by the late ‘80s, when her incoming doctoral classes were relatively even in gender.

Bartolovich said modern programs being more accommodating for women caring for families. She said it is now easier for women to have flexible schedules for teaching at a college or university, making it pos-sible for couples to share child care responsibilities.

Bartolovich said she had an easier time pursing a doctorate at the time than other women because she did not have children.

“I had no trouble finding a tem-porary position while I finished my dissertation,” she said. “However, I did not have children, which made it easy for me to move anywhere to take a position and to be, otherwise, very flexible in the time I could devote to research.”

For Andersen, studying political science at the University of Chicago in the 1970s meant relying on fellow female graduate students. She said she was one of few female graduate students studying political science, with about 20 percent of the graduate students being women.

“But there was a good cohort of women in my graduate school class,” she said. “And I don’t think finishing a doctorate was any more difficult for me than it was for my male classmates.”

A district judge ruled earlier this month the U.S. military’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy was unconstitutional. This, along with the fact that some of the public has been against the policy for some time now, seemed to be signaling the policy’s end.

But that end did not come last week, when the Senate failed to pass a bill that would have resulted in the repeal of “don’t ask, don’t tell.”

The bill needed 60 votes to pass the Republican-led fili-buster, but it only received 56 votes, according to an article published in The New York Times on Sept. 21.

Every Republican who voted on Tuesday voted against the bill, with three Democrats joining them.

The House of Representatives has already passed its version of this bill, and the Obama administration stands behind it.

In this highly contested midterm election year, political experts say every action taken by senators up for election is so scrutinized that every vote becomes a purely political decision, making it difficult to pass some more controver-sial bills like this one.

spcotter@syr.edu

a s k t h e e x p e r t s

“I’m not surprised it didn’t pass. It was predictable, politically. You can argue that both the Democrats and Republicans were just playing to their bases. It is likely that it will happen later in the year after the elections.”

“The American public supports repeal, most people in Congress support repeal, the president supports repeal; it’s only a matter of time. The policy is on its way out. It’s going to be repealed in the near future.”

Thomas Keckprofessor of political science

“Some of these politicians like to hang onto these controversial issues. Rather than do something that makes sense, politicians sometimes do things that don’t make sense to prove their conservatism.”

Robin Rileyprofessor in the department of Women and gender studies

Are you surprised the bill that would have repealed ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ didn’t pass the Senate?

W e’ve had almost three weeks to get settled in with what spring 2011

has to offer. From the looks of this season’s New York Fashion Week, pales and nudes are the palettes of choice, tapered wide-leg pants are the new go-to bottoms, and sheer fabric should be incorporated into every outfit.

These trends create a beautiful, minimalist look for Americans to embrace. The problem is these trends were repetitive among at least half of the designers this sea-son, leading to an uneventful spring.

But this was not my main concern — my issues with NYFW lie within the collections that took concepts and themes overboard, namely Jeremy Scott and Zac Posen. Both designers turned their ready-to-wear collections into something impossible to wear.

Scott is notorious for his over-the-top themes and outspoken mind. I’ve always appreciated his distinct point of view, but his spring collec-tion really missed the target for me. New York Magazine’s blog, “The Cut,” described Scott’s inspiration as “more Zoolander or homeless Gaga.” From the trash bag dresses to the raw meat designs, Scott’s collection was nothing close to glamour and style.

On the other side of the bad design spectrum, the theme of Posen’s younger line, Z Spoke, was overkill. Exaggerated fruit, ruffles, lace and cartoon faces dominated every single outfit that came down the runway. I applaud Posen for using bright colors and graphics instead of the usual whites and beiges — but Zac, there is a line, and you crossed it.

Even though NYFW didn’t leave me awestruck, there were a few shows that really stood out. Namely Jason Wu, Calvin Klein and Proenza Schouler, whose collections deserved all the blogging and fash-ion publication praise in the world. Credit goes where credit is earned.

Wu dominated the runway with trendsetting elegance. The young women portrayed in his designs are now growing up with the help

of long, structured blazers, sheer blouses, truffled skirts and wide, well-tailored trousers. Not only did Wu incorporate the trends, he wasn’t afraid to add color and detailed texture, making his collec-tion effortlessly beautiful.

Francisco Costa, creative direc-tor of Calvin Klein, has always been at the frontier of minimalism. Well-tailored clothing, mixed with beautiful fabric, was the key element to Calvin Klein’s spring collection. What was great about this collection was it showcased Costa’s knowledge of the feminine body. Every outfit fit brilliantly, and the fabric flowed naturally with the beat of each model’s step. Costa really proves clothes do not need to be flashy to be beautiful.

Proenza Schouler, a contempo-rary line by designers Jack McCol-lough and Lazaro Hernandez, was definitely one of the highlights from all of NYFW.

“We wanted it to be a little more polished,” said McCollough to Style.com — and it was. The first half was elegant daywear, with tweed blazers and creamy dresses. The second half was edgy and bright, with sheer dresses and neon colors. A well-exe-cuted collection that proved the label’s longevity in the fashion industry.

Design, style and fit are what make or break the designers during NYFW. Whether the concepts are dramatic or not, it’s essential to stay true to a ready-to-wear collection, and that’s what Wu, Costa, McCol-lough and Hernandez did. While Scott and Posen didn’t exactly uphold that standard, they are still talented. Better luck next season.

i’m judging you

I write this letter to express my profound disgust and horror at an ad published in The Daily Orange on Sept. 28 that advertised a study abroad trip to India with a picture of two monkeys grooming each other. The caption of the ad read, “Hang with the monkeys.” As someone who was born and raised in India, I am mortified to see the vibrant history, tradition and art of my culture has been reduced to nothing more than hanging with primitive animals.

The hidden, or not so hidden, subtext of the title adds to this devalu-ation of the Indian culture and people by reducing brown bodies to be simi-lar to monkeys. It is a thinly veiled attempt to equate Indian ethnicity with primates. It wasn’t too long ago the New York Post printed a racist cartoon of President Barack Obama, depicting two white cops shooting

an ape stating, “They’ll have to find someone else to write the next stimu-lus bill.”

Just a simple Google search on the words “blacks as monkeys” documents both the history and the continued representation of people of color as primitive in the American context. I am deeply offended and hurt to see both my culture and my people have been represented in such an inhumane way.

Based on my previous experience at this institution, I would have understood if this “artwork” would have come out of a student publica-tion. (I am referencing HillTV.) However, I am deeply disturbed to see this ad carries the approval of a university office (SU Abroad), listing both its website and a staff member’s name.

Adding insult to injury is the fact

that the particular office is one in charge of building bridges between Syracuse University and interna-tional communities. Given the nature of the work done by SU Abroad, this form of multicultural incompetence is reprehensible and simply unac-ceptable.

Students of color, including inter-national students, have to endure endless acts of racial micro-aggres-sions (small actions of racist behavior and rhetoric), both on and off cam-pus. This is just one more example of the derogatory treatment we have to endure on a consistent basis. As someone deeply offended and hurt by this representation, I demand a full printed apology in The D.O. by those in charge of this program.

As a Syracuse University Abroad alum, Remembrance Scholar, presi-dent of an Asian-American interest organization and advertising stu-dent, I am offended The Daily Orange published two ads for an SU Abroad Winter Break course, “Painting and Drawing India,” in its Sept. 28 issue.

When I saw these ads, I thought the advertiser implicated that anyone of Indian descent is a monkey. I would imagine SU Abroad, one of our nation’s premier study abroad cen-

ters, would capture lively Indian cul-ture through its promotions. Sadly, uninspiring images and unflattering taglines (such as “Take a ride on the wild side” and “Hang with the mon-keys”) that attempted to symbolize Indian culture were used in attempts to attract attention, interest, desire and action to this Winter Break class.

Through my fellow ‘Cuse classmates’ experiences with modern-day India, there is more than the depressing images of monkeys and nearly

dilapidated cars. I demand whoever is responsible

for the execution and publishing of the ad apologizes to the Syracuse community for careless thinking.

on Taylor. The cameras’ line of vision would be narrow enough that nearby SU residences Law-rinson and Sadler halls would not be captured, Ryan said.

Syracuse Common Council held off on voting on the grant at Monday’s meeting pending fur-ther discussion, but the item will appear on every biweekly meeting agenda until it is approved, denied or withheld. There is no timeline for when it must be voted on or if there will be public hear-ings on the matter, Ryan said after the meeting.

Though the grant comes from the Department of Homeland Security, it would be SPD’s respon-sibility to implement and monitor the surveil-lance system, said SPD Cpt. Richard Trudell at a Common Council study session Sept. 22.

One of the stipulations of the grant, officially called the State Law Enforcement Terrorism Prevention Program grant, is that it be used for terrorism prevention-oriented planning, organi-zation, training, exercise and equipment activi-ties, according to the New York state Office of Homeland Security website. Protecting key infra-structure, like the steam plant and the Dome, falls under those guidelines, Trudell said.

Ryan said one of the reasons the Dome and the steam plant, specifically, were chosen to be monitored is because they are the most likely targets of terrorist activity in Syracuse.

“If you look at where a terrorist could inflict the most pain and destruction, they could attack the 40,000 people in the Dome on a Saturday football game,” Ryan said.

Attacking the steam plant would also greatly impact the city, Ryan said, because it provides steam to the university, Crouse Hospital, the State University of New York College of Environmental

Science and Forestry, Syracuse VA Medical Cen-ter and Upstate Medical University Hospital.

But Ryan added the reasoning behind choos-ing the Dome and the steam plant was partly a manufactured justification to fit the definitions of the grant.

William Snyder, a faculty member at SU’s Insti-tute for National Security and Counterterrorism, said SPD’s reasoning for watching the Dome is consistent with Homeland Security guidelines, as city monuments and places of large public gather-ings are considered potential terrorist targets.

“It’s not like the locals are being creative in justifying how they’re using the cameras,” Sny-der said. “It’s not inconsistent with how other communities are using these grants.”

Another reason for the proposed location is its proximity to Seymour Dual Language Academy on Shonnard Street, Trudell said. To achieve the lowest costs, the technology for the cameras would need to transmit to monitoring systems already set up in schools like Seymour.

Because the cameras would be physically locat-ed on city property, the city would not have to seek the approval of SU to set up the cameras, said SU Department of Public Safety Chief Tony Callisto.

The proposal to receive the Homeland Secu-rity grant comes amid already growing contro-versy over a proposal to place nine other security cameras throughout the Near Westside using a $125,000 Department of Justice grant. The grant for the Near Westside cameras was approved at the Aug. 2 Common Council meeting.

In response to the controversy, Common Council has postponed voting on the placement of the nine cameras twice this month.

Civil liberties groups throughout the city are decrying the plan to install the nine cameras, as well as the possibility of the five Homeland Secu-rity-funded cameras. Barrie Gewanter, director of the Central New York chapter of the New

York Civil Liberties Union, said she thinks it’s suspicious SPD did not mention the Homeland Security grant during the public hearing on the Near Westside cameras Sept. 21, the day before the grant was first proposed to the council.

“The police obviously have plans, we just don’t know what they are,” she said in an address to the council Monday.

Should the Common Council approve the grant, SPD would need to seek additional approval from the council before installing the cameras. Once the grant is received, it is a possibility the cameras will not be pointed at SU buildings, that the grant would not be used at all or that the grant would be used to fund something other than security cameras.

Even though the council would only approve receiving the grant at this point, Gewanter urged the council not to approve it, because it would then be much easier to authorize the cameras without proper public discussion if the funds are available, she said.

Gewanter also took issue to the proposed location of the Homeland Security cameras and said it does not fit with SPD’s plan to locate the other nine cameras in areas of the city where the most shots have been fired.

“Certainly Pioneer Homes is not a terrorist tar-get,” she said. “If the Dome and the steam station are, I suggest police place cameras there instead.”

But some Syracuse residents said they sup-port the cameras as a means to protect the city. Robert Griffith, a Syracuse resident who is a U.S. Navy veteran, said he is for anything that has the potential to stop violent crime.

“Nobody’s been shot or raped by the Dome, but there’s already cameras over there, so I don’t think a couple more would be an affront to privacy,” he said.

SU’s DPS is in the midst of a 12 to 14-phase project to install surveillance cameras on

campus, according to an article published in The Daily Orange in February. Cameras have already been placed at the entrances and exits of residence halls and on the ground and walkways at South Campus.

SU students are split on their approval of the prospect of Homeland Security-funded cameras monitoring the Dome.

Michelle Tivnan, a sophomore environmen-tal engineering major, and Stephanie Gomez, a junior biochemistry major, said they think the cameras would benefit SU in light of the off-campus robberies and burglaries that have targeted students over the past couple of years.

“It’s a little bit invading privacy,” Gomez said. “But at the end of the day, it’s going to help.”

Cassandra Baim, a sophomore English and textual studies major, said she generally thinks security cameras are an invasion of privacy, but her main objection to the proposal is that she thinks it would be a waste of money.

“If you point cameras at the Dome, you’re not going to get much, just a video of a dome-shaped building,” Baim said. “SU isn’t public property, but outside is a bit more public. It sounds about as voyeuristic as someone sitting on top of the Dome and looking down.”

ate program for adults with busy careers who couldn’t live on campus for a year, away from their families or jobs.

Jeremy McKenzie, who has three classes left before graduating from the program, has taken classes online at the University of Mary-land and said online courses can’t compare to SU’s Master of Social Science Degree pro-gram.

“With the online program, there is no connec-tion,” said McKenzie, who is a helicopter pilot with the U.S. Coast Guard and is stationed in Atlantic City. But with the Master of Social Science Degree program, he said there is contact with professors that makes learning more personal.

Before joining the program, Ian Frady searched for a respectable university offering a master’s degree program that would fit his schedule.

“The Syracuse program was the best out there in my eyes,” Frady said.

Frady, a special operations Air Force pilot who is working to finish his degree this semes-ter, added he has learned about topics he’s interested in and about topics that are relevant to his career, such as the nation’s success and failure overseas.

Laurie Sedgwick attended her first residency at SU this past July. She said she was blown away with the program and the high level of interaction with classmates and professors.

“The residency was the best two weeks of my year,” said Sedgwick, associate director of the Career Management Center at Cornell Univer-sity’s Johnson School.

There are five core areas in which students can take classes: the Europe core, U.S. history core, developing nations core, international relations core, and the war and society core, according to the program’s website.

To obtain their master’s degrees, students must complete 30 credit hours, Bennett said. All students must take a mandatory three-credit residency seminar and must complete six credit hours in three different core areas for a total of 18 credits, he said. The remaining 12 credits can be completed through other courses the student is interested in or through independent study projects.

“I personally had three or four of my inde-pendent study programs published as books,” Bennett said.

Course work varies by professor, but Bennett said most courses require between three to five papers on assigned topics and heavy reading. When papers are sent in, professors read them over and make numerous comments before sending them back to the student.

To complete the total of four weeks at SU necessary for the degree, students spend two

separate two-week periods in Syracuse. During the students’ first two-week residency, they spend a two-day weekend at Minnowbrook Con-ference Center, SU’s conference center in the Adirondack Mountains, as part of a mandatory three-credit residency seminar.

The trip to the Adirondacks for lectures and discussion provides a more relaxed atmosphere and a chance for the students and faculty to get to know each other better, said Mehrzad Borou-jerdi, director of the Middle Eastern studies program.

On many occasions, students attend the week-end at the Adirondacks more than once and even return after graduating to get to know the new students of the program, Boroujerdi said.

“Up at Minnowbrook, all of us give lectures on the semester theme,” Bennett said. “We never know what we’re going to talk about. We never tell each other what we’re going to talk about.”

Although professors are hoping the program regains its past strength, Bennett said, it’s easy to see there are some “extremely gifted people” in the program.

“We’ve tapped into a remarkable student body of people who have had, in some cases, extraordinary, distinguished careers meeting together in these residencies,” Bennett said. “It’s a remarkable mixture.”

management experience, and it’s pretty rare that you find those two things together.”

Bertini will start her job as chair of Max-well’s international relations program Friday. She succeeds Donald Planty, who was chair of the program since 2008 and has resigned from the university. His resignation is officially effective Thursday, but his last day in the office was Sept. 22, Bertini said.

The department chair is charged with man-aging the international relations program, including making sure the proper curriculum is in place, helping students with career oppor-tunities and managing the faculty, Bertini said. The graduate international relations program has around 100 students.

Bertini began teaching at Syracuse Univer-sity in 2005. Before coming to SU, she worked for 10 years with the World Food Programme and won the World Food Prize. Her other humani-tarian work includes Senior Fellow in Agricul-tural Development at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and chair of the Girls in Rural Economies project for the Chicago Council on Global Affairs, among many other initiatives and projects. In addition to her humanitarian work, she served as undersecretary-general for

management of the United Nations.Her experience and understanding of differ-

ent cultures, governments, and national and international priorities will help her succeed as department chair, she said.

This semester, she will experience an increased workload, as she teaches two classes in addition to her role as chair. Next semester, she will not teach any classes, but will focus on her chair duties instead. Department chairs typically teach two courses per academic year instead of the normal four, she said.

Wasylenko confirmed Bertini will chair the department for at least the remainder of the academic year. Maxwell is in the process of restructuring its professional programs, he said, which may change the structure of the department.

The graduate international relations pro-gram has a handful of faculty fully assigned to it and depends on faculty from other depart-ments to teach certain courses, Bertini said. The restructuring could help with this in part.

The program has also seen increased popu-larity in recent years, and she said it is impor-tant for the department to thrive in the most effective way possible.

Of the program, Bertini said: “It’s already in the top 10, but we have to make sure for the future we can meet the demand.”

has been initiatives put forth by the Student Association, information and ideas we might otherwise not get,” he said.

Callisto said the program was not created because of a heightened concern for student safety. Year-to-date incidents compared to the last three years have actually seen significant decreases, he said. SU has seen eight serious incidents, such as robbery, assault and burglary, so far this year. Around the same time one year ago, that number was at 12, and two years ago at 24, he said.

The program has been in the works since the summer when Callisto first brought it up, Horvath said.

“It’s another way to get student feedback,” she

said. “We want to know what we can do better.”The program is expected to continue if the

first semester is a success.“Especially if we’re getting good feedback,

it’s definitely something we’d like to continue,” Horvath said.

Emmanuel Fort-Diaz, sophomore biology major, said he did not have time to go for lunch with Callisto, but he could see other students who have more free time going. Fort-Diaz said if he needed to contact DPS, he would probably do so via e-mail.

Fort-Diaz said he is concerned with the DPS shuttle service, as he said there were times last year when students needed a ride and could not get one.

“It’s important,” he said about students voic-ing their concerns to DPS. “There have been times DPS slacked a little last year.”

s e p t e m be r 2 9 , 2 0 1 0 9

S tudents at the University of Florida will soon have the option for a fall vacation instead of a summer vacation.

This new plan would allow UF to admit stu-dents for spring and summer semesters, instead of the traditional fall and spring semesters. Though it was originally thought that a state statute might block the plan, the state Legisla-ture has given approval to pilot the plan without repealing the statute.

“A major concern of the University of Florida is the ability of students to gain access to higher education,” said Joe Glover, UF provost and senior vice president of academic affairs. “This plan is an attempt to offer more students the ability to attend.”

The university is already at capacity during the fall semester, Glover said. During the spring and summer, more spots open up because stu-dents graduate in the winter or study abroad in the spring, he said.

“I could imagine various types of students interested in this program: students who want their falls free, students who think they have better opportunities for internships and work in fall, and students who like summer courses,” said Steve Orlando, the director for print and online media at UF.

But a 2004 Florida Legislature state statute mandates that students who enter college with nine or more Advanced Placement or similar cred-its cannot be required to attend summer school.

“At the time, they thought it was a good idea, and it was connected with another program,” Glover said. “Eventually the other program was repealed, and this statute was not.”

Many students in the UF system come in with nine or more credits, Glover said. With the current statute in place, many students would not be able to take advantage of the program the university is trying to offer.

Last week the Legislature told the univer-

sity it does not believe the statute needs to be repealed for the experiment to proceed, so plan-ning for the project has moved forward.

If the law does need to be repealed, the university would have to follow normal Florida state procedure for amending or repealing a statute. A member of the Legislature would have to introduce a bill that would amend or repeal the statute.

This introduced bill would then follow the normal legislative process to be passed. Once the statute is repealed, the plan can go into

effect, which would probably happen in Janu-ary 2013, Glover said.

Enrolling in the summer semester would not be mandatory for students, Glover said. It would be an option incoming students could check off on their applications about whether they would be interested in this program or not.

The next step is to begin planning in ear-nest and to hash out specific details, Glover said. For example, classes that are available in sequences, such as languages, will need to be adjusted so they are available in the spring and

summer semesters, as well as the fall and spring semesters.

“We anticipate that we will need to employ more instructors, but that’s what student tuition is for,” Glover said. “Since we normally have over 20,000 students on campus in summer, many buildings are already open, along with dining facilities and the like, so that infrastruc-ture is already available.”

the sweet stuff in the middle

By Erica MurphyContributing Writer

T he lights flickered in streams of red and white. The intima-cy that would encompass the

next two hours settled in. As people strolled in at the last second, a relaxed atmosphere took over.

Once the pulsing lights faded into blaring music, applause and cheers echoed through the theater.

The Goo Goo Dolls took center stage and began with a new single, “Sweetest Lie.” A rock-like banner sat behind the band and fog poured onto stage. With the gray mist rolling in, the theater mimicked a typical cloudy Syracuse day. The band’s per-

formance at the Oncenter’s Crouse-Hinds Concert Theater Tuesday night was the second stop of its fall 2010 tour.

No stranger to the Syracuse area, the rock band’s return was as much an intimate homecoming as it was a concert. Solidifying the message that the concert was a shout-out to the band’s hometown of Buffalo, N.Y., crowd members chanted “Buffalo” to the band.

After the opening, lead singer John Rzeznik introduced the band and said it was good to be back. He asked the crowd to refrain from being shy, which further accentuated the relaxed feel.

Accepting Rzeznik’s invitation, fans gradually swayed to songs, thrust their hands into the air and

moved them to the music. Rzeznik and bass guitarist Robby

Takac were actually close enough to touch audience members’ hands in the more than 2,000-seat theater. The front row was inches from the stage, and someone could have easily hopped up.

As the crowd moved together, the intimate setting started meaning more to some than to others.

“We drove five hours to here for our 25th anniversary,” said Jill Chuli from Ontario, Canada, about her and her husband. “We tried for a cruise, but this was the next best thing.”

Chuli also mentioned how the Goo Goo Dolls appealed to a wide variety of people. Originating in the ‘80s,

EncorEthe goo goo Dolls abbreviated set list, rated out of 5 stars:

“Sweetest Lie” 4/5 — it was an upbeat song to start off the show, but i was not familiar with the words, so i had to wait a little to get into the concert.“big Machine” 5/5 — one of my favorite goo goo Dolls songs, and it was even better live.“Slide” 5/5 — the greatest part about seeing a band like the goo goo Dolls is that you always know they aren’t lip-synching. this song had a little extra, which made it that much better.“everything you are” 3/5 — rzeznik slowed the tempo down a little bit, but i wanted more action.“here is Gone” 5/5 — it’s impossible not to love a classic.“another Second Time around” 4/5 — this is your typical goo goo Dolls song, and it sounds great live.“Smash” 4/5 — it was a pretty good song, but i didn’t know the words.“one night” 5/5 — this song is from the new album and per-suaded me to put part of my paycheck toward it.“black balloon” 5/5 — it is always great when the crowd starts throwing things in the air, especially when they are black balloons.“home” 5/5 — the lyrics were really touching, and it was easy to feel the emotion.“better Days” 5/5 — this song is wonderful because it gets you to realize that your day may suck, but someone else is having a bad day, too.“Stay With you” 4/5 — A little below average, based on goo goo Dolls standards.“Something For The Rest of Us” 5/5 — this was a great song, but it made all the single people realize they were single — depressing. “now i hear” 5/5 — this song definitely showcases the true goo goo Dolls sound.“Tucked away” 3/5 — this song was pretty hard to under-stand, especially because i wasn’t familiar with it.“name” 5/5 — Another one of my favorites, and he wrote it when he didn’t even shave. Who wouldn’t love that?“Let Love in” 5/5 — in the state of our country, these words of wisdom really relate to people around the world.“as i am” 4/5 — Definitely motivational.“all eyes on Me” 3/5 — An oK song on the record and a little better live, but still not a favorite.“iris” 5/5 — Classics are always the best, and this was no exception.“not broken” 3/5 — A little boring for the encore.“broadway” 5/5 — i couldn’t have asked for a better finale performance.

“I think the venue is really good because it’s smaller. I give it two thumbs up.”

older fans knew the Goo Goo Dolls just as well as their teenage counterparts. The band just released a new album in August. “Slide,” which was part of its three-song opener, was released in 1998. A middle-aged man was belting out the lyrics just as honestly as a teenage girl present with her mother.

Taking the time to talk to the audience in between songs kept the conversation going with the crowd. When the Goo Goo Dolls weren’t talking, they dazzled the crowd with new and old tunes.

When Takac gave his introduction barefoot, he commented on how he always thought Syra-cuse had intelligent school colors.

“They put the drunken college kids in safety orange. What could be smarter than that?” said Takac. He received muffled chuckles.

As the Goo Goo Dolls sang each song, the band revealed where its lyrics originated from. Rzeznik spoke about how he didn’t even shave when he wrote “Name.” Then as he began “Bet-ter Days,” he told the audience this song was for everyone and they were all lucky to be there together.

While Rzeznik sang most of the band’s num-bers, Takac performed a few of his vocals to the audience. “All Eyes on Me” and “Tucked Away” were part of his set list.

When favorites like “Name” began, the audi-ence members responded by throwing their lighters in the air. Once the crowd heard the first notes of “Black Balloon,” it began tossing black balloons upward. Through its prepara-tion, the band further established the intimate connection.

“I think the venue is really good because it’s smaller,” said Tara Blum, a Syracuse resident. “I give it two thumbs up.”

The Goo Goo Dolls ended with “Iris,” but it

didn’t take long to be followed with an encore, which happened only 30 seconds later. The band played a two-song encore, the first of which was “Not Broken” from its newest album. The entire performance ended with “Broadway.” The crowd lingered, not wanting to leave the theater. The nearly-full venue was up and danc-ing to the music.

Screaming out the lyrics, the crowd was not shy about demonstrating its passion toward the band.

The show began just as it had ended. The Goo Goo Dolls held the stage with a light air. Its man-ner perfected after 24 years of touring around the world.

“They sang well live,” said Matthew Matrus-ki, a sophomore television, radio and film and entrepreneurship and emerging enterprises major at Syracuse University. “It was definitely cool to see the people that my parents played for me when I was younger.”

By Alexa PizziCONTRIBUTING WRITER

A s the workload piles up and exams start rolling in, the semester is fi nally kicking into high gear. The parties and packed tables in E.S. Bird Library can attest that

Syracuse University offers an array of after-dark activities, but make sure you arrive at that early morning lecture the next day. Easier said than done when you wake up fi ve minutes before your fi rst class.

Dressing for class may not be the most important thing on your mind when recovering from the fi ve-hour cram session from the previous night, but your look doesn’t have to scream, “I’ve been up all night!” There are simple outfi t options other than what you wore to the gym the previous day.

First off, ditch the sweatpants with “Syracuse” screened down the leg. Although it is a comfy alternative to jeans, it looks frumpy and unrefi ned. Pairing with it the matching Syracuse hoodie looks even worse. Try some leggings, or even jeggings (jean leg-gings). They are as comfy as your favorite sweatpants, but can be sleek and sophisticated when paired with the right top.

Pair the leggings with a solid-colored scoop neck or v-neck T-shirt, and throw on an oversized cardigan to give it a sophisticated upgrade. For the more rustic crowd, try on your boyfriend’s cozy fl annel. An oversized fl annel button-down with your leggings is an effortless yet stylish way to start the day.

If a fl annel and a v-neck won’t work, try a button-down jean shirt: The throwback from the ‘90s pairs well with anything. It’s comfortable and classic. If it’s a Friday morning, wear it over leggings with the leg warmers from the ‘80s-themed Thirsty Thursday. It’s just as easy as throwing on the sweats.

If you must wear a sweatshirt, at least be unique. Instead of the obvious orange or blue Syracuse hooded sweatshirt, try a basic gray hoodless one. Pair the classic Syracuse sweatshirt with a pair of jeggings. The outfi t is polished and easy to slip

on. To add even more pizzazz to the look, cut the sweatshirt around the neck. This will create a slouchy look and add comfort when you’re trying to stay awake during your 8 a.m. lecture the next day.

If your current wardrobe doesn’t have what you need for the post up-all-night outfi t, search the Salvation Army or your parents’ closet for a vintage T-shirt. Yeah, T-shirts can seem boring and simple, but when you put your own spin on them, they can transform your look. Take an old concert T-shirt and cut it around the neck, similar to the way you cut your sweat-shirt. The T-shirt takes on a new slouchy look. An old T-shirt with some black leggings adds a vintage vibe to your ensemble. Maybe you haven’t been to bed yet or spent much time on your look, but your outfi t looks thought-out and chic.

When all you really want to do is put on your favorite sweats or just wear pajamas to class, shoes are the last piece of clothing you want to think about. Avoid the obvious choice of running sneakers. They are great for the gym, but no need to wear them to class. Ugg boots, however comfortable and convenient, are overdone on Syracuse campus. Be different!

Slip on a pair of black or tan boots, or even a sleek pair of Keds sneakers. Both ideas pair well with any outfi t choice and can be comfortable. Try out a pair of combat boots with any of the outfi ts above. The combat boot is just as easy to lace up as the running shoes, but adds an edgy vibe to the look. At least you’ll look good running late to class.

Next time you pull an all-nighter, remember the basics: leggings, not sweats; self-enhanced T-shirt or button-down, not hoodie; and fl at boots or “plain Jane” sneakers, not run-ning shoes or Ugg boots. Being tired doesn’t have to mean looking sloppy.

s p o r t s @ d a i l y o r a n g e . c o m

By Zach BrownStaff Writer

The feeling last Saturday was a bit unfamiliar to Michigan State head coach Mark Dantonio.

Unable to take his usual place on the sidelines at Spartan Stadium, Dantonio was relegated to the couch at his home for his team’s non-confer-ence clash with Northern Colorado. Something much more serious than football was keeping him away.

Just a week earlier, Dantonio had suffered a mild heart attack that required surgery. His condition made it impossible for him to be with his team on game day. And for their coach, the Spartans pounded the Bears, 45-7.

“I will say it was a little bit surreal watching the game at home,” Dantonio said in the Big Ten coaches’ teleconference this week. “I had no chips, wasn’t allowed, but it was different because you know when you see your football team — or our football team — playing, and you’re not there, and you’ve been there for four years. … It’s a little bit different.”

The game day feeling will return to somewhat normal this Saturday, as the 54-year-old Danto-nio is back at practices as No. 24 Michigan State (4-0) prepares for its Big Ten opener at home against No. 11 Wisconsin (4-0). But he won’t be back on those familiar sidelines in East Lansing, Mich. Instead, he’ll be in the coaches’ box to avoid any fatigue walking around might cause. Dantonio’s primary goal for the week is to turn attention away from himself and make sure his

team focuses on the vital conference matchup.“The reason I came to the press conference

today, the reason I was around our football team on Sunday, the reason I was in the office on Mon-day was because I think it’s very, very important that we focus on Wisconsin,” Dantonio said. “That the focus goes from Mark Dantonio and that night to Wisconsin and what we have to get done this weekend.”

Dantonio’s last appearance on the Spartans’ sideline was a dramatic one. Notre Dame trav-eled to Spartan Stadium for a showdown with MSU. After 60 hard-fought minutes, the teams were knotted at 28-28.

After the Spartan defense forced the Fighting Irish to kick a field goal, the Michigan State offense sputtered to a fourth-down attempt on its chance in overtime. The field-goal unit ran onto the field, seemingly to kick the tying 46-yard field goal.

But Dantonio decided to risk it all and called a fake. Holder Aaron Bates caught the snap, rolled out to his right and found a wide-open Charlie Gantt for the winning touchdown.

“Boy, hats off to Mark,” said Boise State head coach Chris Petersen, who is known for his trick play calls with the Broncos. “Without question that was quite a call right there. You know they’re scary. Those are scary to call because it’s just an unbelievable call if it works, and if it doesn’t, everybody’s saying, ‘What were you thinking?’”

But even scarier than the call was the heart

attack Dantonio suffered later that night. He said he was frightened by the situation, but now it’s simply a matter of moving on.

“I think the key will be moving forward and getting stronger every day and dealing with the consequences and dealing with the things that you have to do,” Dantonio said. “And that’s all a part of this, so that’s what I’ll do.”

Michigan State did crush Northern Colorado without Dantonio on the sideline. But the Bad-gers should be a much more formidable oppo-nent than the Bears, a member of the Football Championship Subdivision.

The Spartans head coach wants to rid his team of any distractions, whether they come from him or elsewhere. He said he was treating the heart attack like an injury to the team, and Michigan State typically doesn’t discuss injuries.

So for him and MSU, it’s time to put the inci-dent from Sept. 19 behind them and look forward to their Big Ten conference opener.

“(Wisconsin) coach (Bret) Bielema has an out-standing football team,” Dantonio said. “When you look at them as a football team, they bring back everybody on the offensive side of the ball except one player. … Defensively, they return six starters. It’ll be another outstanding challenge for us offensively and defensively.”

Big man on campusTerrelle PryorJunior quarterback

ohio STaTeLast week’s stats: 20-of-26, 224 yards, 4 passing

tds, 7 carries, 104 yards, 1 rushing td, 1 catch, 20

yards, 1 receiving td

Yes, Pryor’s performance did come against a lowly Eastern Michigan squad that hasn’t won a game since 2008. But any time someone scores six touchdowns, let alone does it three different ways, he deserves some recognition.

Pryor pioneered No. 2 Ohio State’s 73-20 romp over the Eagles with four touchdowns through the air, sandwiched between a 53-yard touch-down scamper and a 20-yard catch for a score.

“I think he’s making significant steps,” Buck-eyes head coach Jim Tressel said. “You knew that year two was going to be a big one, but you also knew it wasn’t going to be perfect and that there would be some great lessons. And if we would learn them and internalize them, then maybe we could get close to reaching that poten-tial that we all feel that he can be special.”

Pryor opened the scoring onslaught with his touchdown on the ground, and the Buckeyes (4-0) jumped out to a 24-0 lead by the end of the

first quarter. All four of the junior’s touchdown passes went to senior wide receiver Dane San-zenbacher, tying the single-game record for an Ohio State receiver. The Buckeyes’ 73 points marked the highest point total for the school since an 83-21 win over Iowa in 1950.

(3-1)

With just more than five minutes left in the third quarter Saturday, Alabama looked like it was headed toward its first loss since the 2008 Sugar Bowl. Down 20-7 in a rowdy Razorback Stadium, the Crimson Tide’s title defense looked to be just about over.

But the nation’s No. 1 team buckled down on defense and turned to Heisman Trophy winner Mark Ingram, as it has so many times before, to pull out a dramatic 24-20 victory in its Southeast-ern Conference opener.

Ingram finished with 157 yards on 24 car-ries and scored the go-ahead touchdown from a yard out with 3:18 left on the clock. The Tide defense then closed out the game with its third interception of Heisman candidate Ryan Mal-lett, keeping Alabama at the No. 1 spot for at least another week.

celebration ensued.“It is just a great thing that they are very differ-

ent, but I think they read each other well and play well together,” SU assistant coach Abby Crump-ton said. “I think they combine well together. It’s been great because Tina is fairly new, and for them to mesh so quickly, it is good for us.”

Yes, there were the hundreds of practices in which the two had partaken together in the past two years. During those, there were a bevy of goals. But for these two attacking forces — the premier goal scorers for Syracuse women’s soc-cer — this was it. This one counted. And with the goal coming two minutes prior to the end of regulation, it helped SU to a 1-1 tie with Lehigh.

But it was at least one year too late. Perhaps two. In 2010, though, everything for the Orange hinges on it.

“I think they are transferring a lot of atten-tion from the opposition,” SU head coach Phil Wheddon said. “I think that leaves other people unattended.”

Heading into the 2009 season, it appeared as if everything for the team hinged on Bellingham. She was the returning goal scoring leader with

17 points and eight goals in 2008. There was the newcomer Romagnuolo, who had redshirted in 2008 because of a commitment to the Canadian national team. Everyone expected she would soon become just like Bellingham.

But what Bellingham, Romagnuolo and Wheddon couldn’t expect was everything actu-ally hinged on a hinge of Bellingham herself. The joints in her knees, to be exact.

As a result, Bellingham would miss the remainder of the 2009 season with sore knees she only described as “wear and tear.” The knees were so bad that after playing in just two games alongside Romagnuolo, Bellingham couldn’t complete a single practice.

Technically, those first two games were the first times Bellingham met Romagnuolo in a real game. But it was at a time when Bellingham was still everything. She assisted Romagnuolo’s first career goal against St. Bonaventure.

It was before the injury. It was before Romag-nuolo became everything. For one year, at least.

“It felt kind of good to be a leader, even though I was only a freshman,” Romagnuolo said.

For the remaining 17 games, Bellingham got the chance to see what the future of the program looked like. Bellingham saw the then-freshman Romagnuolo score nine of SU’s 13 goals.

But Bellingham knew the future for both

Romagnuolo and herself would include the even-tual one year together after the medical redshirt Bellingham received last season. So she was determined to make it.

“I think always coming off an injury is tough because, pretty much, you are working from ground zero back up to 100 percent,” Bellingham said. “For me, it was just a day-by-day process, and I just wanted to come back and just be as right as I was to contribute this season.”

When Bellingham went down, Romagnuolo was called upon to be a leader for the team, a tall task for an incoming freshman. But for Romagnuolo, it was a time to gain respect from her teammates.

She used her national-team experience to find her niche on the team. Even if it was a niche she was rushed into. She was just that skilled.

The skill was there. Then came the collegiate experience — the difficult 2-8-1 conference record after Bellingham went down. It was experience she meshed with her previous international les-sons learned.

“Experience, leadership and also just knowing how to control the game and the tempo of the game,” Romagnuolo said of the responsibilities she learned from her time spent on the national team. “Just training hard every day in practice and trying to get people to do the same.”

Now Romagnuolo is meshing all she has learned with all Bellingham brings to the table. And they have combined to become a success-ful attacking combination for the Orange this season.

For Crumpton, there has been nothing better than watching two double-digit scorers join each other on the same field. The meeting is something she and Wheddon have been yearning for after what seems like an eternity.

“I think it’s great, I think they complement each other really well,” Crumpton said. “Both bring different things to the table, and we need them both. I think that it’s good because it throws off other teams that we don’t have three of the same kind of player in the attack.”

The much-planned attacking tandem has finally been let loose this season. Between the two, they have scored six goals and had three assists. Bellingham leads the team in points, while Romagnuolo is third.

Coming into the season, nobody knew for sure how Bellingham and Romagnuolo were going to coexist in the offensive third. And although they have clearly diverse skill sets, the variance has enabled the pair to mesh well for Syracuse this season. For Bellingham, Romagnuolo is the perfect complement.

“She works so hard all the time,” Bellingham said. “I don’t think she ever stops running. It’s just great to have a player that is pretty much my polar opposite. She’s fast, does great runs off the ball, and she’s always a good target to find and always has the mentality to get a goal.”

But both players have talents that have enabled them to become the go-to players on the field this season. The tandem has used these strengths to expose defenses all season long.

Crumpton credited Bellingham with being one of the strongest players on the team, while applauding Romagnuolo’s technique with the ball. These strengths have not only brought the players’ success, but have also enabled the Orange to become a stronger team this season.

Over the past two years, scoring from any source outside Bellingham and Romagnuolo was virtually nonexistent. This season, there are already four players who have amassed five points for the Orange. Wheddon sees the two on the field as an opportunity to draw attention away from other role players.

“We’ve seen a lot more different people scor-ing,” Wheddon said.

Junior midfielder Taylor Chamberlain has had the opportunity to play with each player in her career at SU. Chamberlain has finally had the opportunity to see her midfield success increase this season with the addition of Bellingham into the lineup. The two have become apparent scor-ing outlets for all Syracuse players.

“It’s great always having options and knowing that something is going to come of your hard work,” Chamberlain said. “It’s nice to know that your teammates are going to support you, just as you are going to support them.”

For Bellingham, it is not about having two prolific scorers in the front line, but rather the progress the program is making to have more talent all over the field. Romagnuolo is just one of the younger players who have stepped into a successful role for the Orange.

And if this season is any indication, Syracuse is going to find talent in the future.

When someone other than these two becomes everything. Even if the program as a whole doesn’t have to jostle with injuries and confront a delayed start.

Even if the meeting comes to fruition as planned.

Said Bellingham: “Having these young players step into leadership roles just coming into, like, sophomore year, it’s been really exciting to watch. I can’t wait to see where it goes in the future.”

Sporting a somewhat bulkier version of Rip Hamilton’s trademark face mask to cover her newly fractured nose at practice on Tuesday, sophomore Skylar Sabbag could definitely vouch for the speed of the game this past weekend.

“There was, like, 10 seconds left,” Sabbag said. “Connecticut was taking a corner kick, and I was marking my player. The ball came to us, and I was trying to head it out. So she (the Connecticut player) was on my left, Alyscha (Mottershead) was on my right, and then we all went up, and I don’t remember what happened after that.”

What happened after that, among other things, was the final horn to a match in which the Orange held very little control over the pacing. In turn, SU was shut down.

And pacing, thus far, has fluctuated with the success and tribulations of the Orange. It appears it will continue that way.

A couple weeks ago, when facing highly ranked schools like Portland and Washington, Syracuse

was trying to slow the game down. This week in practice, preparing for division foes in Notre Dame and DePaul, SU will need to find a way to speed it back up. Between then and now, Syracuse has gotten more comfortable as a team and, as a result, has been able to control possession a little easier against lesser opponents. But Sunday’s game served, at the very least, as a wake-up call that these Big East teams can run, too.

The focus of the next few practices will be on speed of decision making and technical execu-tion under pressure as the Orange prepares for quicker, more decisive teams on the horizon.

“We get the ball, and we take one or two touch-es,” SU head coach Phil Wheddon said. “When against these fast teams, you can’t do that. You’ve got to move the ball much, much quicker. Receive it and play it. We’re going to put some players under some pressure today, to perform individu-ally in a one-on-one situation, and it’s going to be about competing on both sides of the ball.”

Wheddon needs to see how his players will react in the midst of constant pressure, often

when it is difficult to communicate between teammates about who guards whom or who needs to be positioned where. These are all decisions the head coach wants to see his team make on the fly.

“We’re really trying to make sure that players are aware on both attack and defense what their responsibilities are,” Wheddon said.

If the Orange is going to be able to run with the Irish, a team known for being both quick and technical, it is going to have to work on stay-ing alert on both sides of the ball. Connecticut was able to force frequent turnovers because it chased and pressured the Syracuse defense. Casey Ramirez, one of SU’s defensive leaders, recognizes the effect of natural foot speed in every situation.

“Always being on your toes,” Ramirez said. “If someone gets past you, you always have to recover or watch the ball to make sure that they have to step past someone. If we get better at it, it makes you a better team in general. The faster you play, the better you are.”

Good defense breeds a good offense. Whed-

don will be looking to put together some quick-shifting packages to outthink and outrun future conference opponents, because Syracuse can no longer afford to be outhustled. Ramirez is one of the quicker players on the team, but it will rest on the entire squad to pick up the pace.

Sabbag has confidence SU will be up for the challenge.

“I think we’re a fast team,” she said. “I think we just need to play smart. We just need to stay with our players and really do whatever we can to not let them score.”

Last weekend, Sabbag suffered a similar injury to the Detroit Pistons’ Richard Hamilton. An injury Hamilton repeatedly attempted to overcome without the mask. But then he gave in, and he won a championship.

Sabbag will now be looking for similar results from herself and the rest of the SU team. And the Orange hopes it will get off to the races.

Said Sabbag: “Yeah, I’ll be alright. I can play with a broken nose.”

Orange bench held back from joining frenetic 2nd half brawl

By Allison GuggenheimerStaff Writer

Federico Agreda did not see what happened. What happened was a fight. Agreda wanted in.

He was sitting on the Syracuse bench with 17:20 left in the match when, all of a sudden, he saw players from both Syracuse and Cani-sius sprint to the far right corner of the field. He sprung up to get in on whatever had just occurred in Syracuse’s defensive quarter, but he was held back by the SU coaches.

He later found out SU defender Robbie Hughes had tackled Canisius midfielder Steve Mahon from the ground. Mahon then stepped on Hughes, and a shoving match, enhanced by some exchanged insults, ensued. Everyone on the field ran to the corner, creating a mishmash of blue and white jerseys. The sideline referee received help from some of the players, but others were less interested in breaking up the fight.

“I was the first one to get up and go run,” Agreda said. “I wanted to go kick some butt, but all the coaches held us, just in case we got red carded and we got kicked out of the game.”

In a game in which the Orange lacked some vitality, this confrontation may have proven too much excitement for the team. Canisius dominated the second half, particularly the 20 minutes that followed the incident.

Head coach Ian McIntyre continues to look for the spark that will ignite his team early in the game. An almost bench-clearing brawl, however, is not his method of choice. He is look-ing for a “controlled aggression,” something between the slow first half and the overexcite-ment of the Hughes-Mahon face-off.

“We need a little bit of spark,” McIntyre said. “Maybe not to that extreme, but we need a couple of players at certain times in the game to inject a little bit of enthusiasm. It’s important that Robbie and other players don’t play on the edge, that they have that controlled aggression that will allow them to win their physical con-frontations.”

Tuesday, a brawl was what McIntyre got. Hughes said the call could have gone either way because both players went in hard for the tackle, but Canisius was awarded the free kick. Both Hughes and Mahon were given yellow cards, but no scoring opportunities came as a direct result of the confrontation.

Hughes said after something so heated, it was important to calm down quickly and focus on the

rest of the game. He has the captain, goalkeeper Jeremy Vuolo, to thank for that. Vuolo pulled him away from the fray and talked him down. Defender Jakob Karlgren said it was important to move past emotional confrontations.

“If you take it the wrong way, you’re going to try to get back at the players,” Karlgren said. “But none of us did that, so it was no problem.”

McIntyre said the team was left frustrated because Canisius is 0-5 this season, and the Orange did not dominate play, let alone win the game. Syracuse itself has only one win so far this year. It has yet to score more than one goal in a game. This game seemed like a chance to change that.

When the skirmish occurred, more than 70 minutes had passed, and Syracuse only had three really close chances aside from Nick Roy-dhouse’s goal on a free kick. Players had been getting into arguments throughout the game with members of the other team and the offi-cials. Over the entire game plus two overtimes, the two teams combined for 18 fouls called.

And though the Orange was unable to execute crisp play for most of the game, the confronta-tions with Canisius kept the game exciting.

Exciting enough to have Agreda explicitly state that, yes, he wanted in on some of the action.

He wanted a real fight after a bunch of small-er soccer ones with the Canisius defenders.

“In the first half, the first 10 minutes, I was getting in fights with the defender,” Agreda said. “So the whole game, (I) was fired up. It was a war. They had a bad record, and we needed a win. It wasn’t completely bad the whole game, but it fired us up.”

“I was the first one to get up and go run. I wanted to go kick some butt, but all the coaches held us just in case we got red carded and we got kicked out of the game.”

Federico AgredaSU forWard

And that program is one whose pedigree is anything but pretty. Canisius men’s soccer has more than 2.5 times more losses than wins in its history. Ten times, it has won one or fewer games in a season.

This tie will sting for Syracuse.“We targeted this as a must-win game,”

Roydhouse said. “Walking away from here with a draw, we haven’t gained a point, we’ve dropped two.”

Once again, the only offense for the Orange came from Roydhouse. He netted his team-leading fourth goal of the season on a 30-yard free kick eight minutes before halftime.

That was all Syracuse could manage. True

enough, it dominated the two overtime peri-ods. But that’s just 20 minutes in a game that lasted 110. McIntyre still cannot get a complete performance out of his team, and eight games in, that should be a little discomforting.

“The easy way for us right now is to point a finger at a referee (for letting the clock run out),” he said. “What we can control is how we approach games and how we apply ourselves in the games.”

Vuolo acknowledged the team needs to make emotional adjustments. Instead of coming out flat and waiting for the other team’s goal to act as a wake-up call, he said the team needs “that little fire” from the opening whistle.

“We were disappointed in the effort that we were putting forth more than anything,” Vuolo said. “I hate being outworked by any team.”

Anna Crumb had big expectations for her roommate-to-be. Literally.

After getting her room assignment for the 2010-11 academic year at Syracuse University, the freshman back went online to do some research. She searched for pictures of Leonie Geyer. What Crumb saw was a big, powerful field hockey player, menacing her opposition.

But when the two freshmen finally met in their Shaw Hall dorm room in August, Crumb was taken aback by what she saw. The image of the huge player from Neuss, Germany, dissipated, and a shy, soft-spoken freshman replaced it.

“I assumed that she was going to be bigger,” Crumb said. “But she is this tiny, little, petite girl. When she plays, she plays so big. She kind of owns the field when she plays.”

Owning the field — and the stat sheet — is all Geyer has done since arriving on Syracuse’s campus. The first-year midfielder has started in eight of nine games the Orange has played this season and is tied for first on the team in points with 12.

Though her stats and grasp of the system may tell people otherwise, head coach Ange Bradley said Geyer is still transitioning between life in Germany and life in the U.S. Geyer is 3,728 miles away from her hometown and still adapting to her new situation.

“She is just so quiet, and then when she does say something, you’re like, ‘Oh, OK,’” Bradley

said. “She is just feeling it all out right now, still in that ‘trying to figure it out’ stage.”

Geyer’s journey to the U.S. began when assistant coach Lynn Farquhar saw some video clips at Sport-Scholarships online. Based on what she saw in the clips, Farquhar said Geyer was worth visiting in the winter.

For Geyer, it was just the idea of coming to the states and experiencing a different life-style that was intriguing. When she realized a school with a good field hockey team and good academics was coming to her, it seemed too good to turn down.

“Syracuse was just the best pick,” Geyer said.

Geyer never visited the campus or the coun-try before deciding to commit. All the firsthand knowledge she had received about the school and the new country had come via the screen of her computer all the way back in Germany.

But she did have contact with some of her teammates before leaving for school. This sum-mer, two of the Orange’s other foreign players, sophomore backs Amy Kee and Iona Holloway, played in a summer league overseas and met with Geyer in Achim, Germany.

Both Kee, a native of England, and Holloway, a native of Scotland, had already gone through what Geyer is currently going through. Adjust-ing to living in a different culture while bal-ancing the pressures of being on a nationally ranked field hockey team and the expectations to do well in classes were things the two sopho-mores knew all about.

Geyer said those two players, along with junior midfielder Martina Loncarica, a native of Argentina, have served as crutches for her to lean on when adjusting to life in America is at its toughest.

“They understand my situation,” Geyer said. “Everything is different. They know this — they have done this before in their first years when they came here, and everything was dif-ferent for them.

“They know how I feel and can help me with it and try to explain to me what it means to play here. Trying to explain what is different and what I can do to get better.”

But despite all of the changes and adjust-ments, Geyer has blossomed on the field. Both Crumb and Geyer said they have been sur-prised at the numbers that appear next to Geyer’s name on the stat sheet.

After just nine games, Geyer is already being mentioned with the likes of two-time All-American Lindsey Conrad. But Bradley said she isn’t surprised at all by what her prospect has accomplished. In fact, it’s what she expected.

“I thought she could,” Bradley said. “She played on the under-21 team in Germany. You’re a pretty good player if you can be one of the top 30 players in Germany, especially since they’re No. 3 in the world.

“If you can come into the system and adapt to the cultural differences, I think you’d be fine and be in a position to start to dominate.”

Jeremy Vuolo didn’t want to talk about it. Eight seconds passed before he answered the question of what he said to the referee, and even then he skirted around it.

“It’s just (that) you have to be respect-

ful. I’m just — no comment on it,” he said.

Syracuse midfielder Geoff Lytle had been taken down by an opposing player just outside the penalty area, and the Orange looked like it would have one more chance to win the game in regulation. But the officials didn’t issue a card to the Canisius defender, and the clock ran out to end regulation.

Vuolo sprinted more than 60 yards from the Syracuse goal to the Canisius side of the field, letting

the official know exactly how he felt about the decision to not stop the clock on the ensuing free kick.

One of Syracuse’s most well-com-posed players had lost his cool. He was frustrated. He was fed up. And perhaps he was a little embarrassed with how his team had played.

Vuolo and Syracuse (1-4-3) played Canisius (0-5-1) to a 1-1 double over-time tie Tuesday, in arguably the program’s most disappointing result since losing to Oneonta State in 2005. The winless Golden Griffins outplayed SU for nearly the entire game and made a statement to the Orange in its own stadium. Head coach Ian McIntyre and the players had come into the game expecting three points, but instead left the field with nothing but frustration.

“At the end of the day, I think we were almost lucky to get away with a draw,” SU midfielder Nick Royd-

house said. “I feel like they wanted it more than we did.”

That desire to win negated any advantage the Orange had over Cani-sius on paper. And there were plenty.

The Golden Griffins came into

Tuesday’s game having scored just one goal on the season. They allowed more than two goals per game to their opponents. Syracuse had won all eight matches the two teams had played against one another, outscor-ing Canisius 46-4. In 1984, SU even

routed the Golden Griffins 16-1.After the game, Vuolo put the

shocking result in perspective.“They’re not a quality side,” he

said. “They didn’t possess the ball with any quality. They didn’t deserve

to keep it away from us. We kind of let them do that.”

And once again, the Orange let its opponent get on the board first. In the 25th minute, the Golden Griffins passed right around the SU defense for an impressive goal. Defender

Aaron Ramos-Gonzalez made a long run out of the back and found a teammate open at the top of the box. Regan Steele then slotted it between two Syracuse defenders, and J.J. Hughes put it away.

It was the fifth time this season the Orange has conceded a first-half goal and has been forced to play from behind early in the game.

“You saw the Canisius guys before the match, and they were very excit-ed,” McIntyre said. “I think that, ultimately, the way we approached the game and the start of the game I was disappointed with.”

The Golden Griffins saw this game as a chance to send a message. Syracuse is the only team on Cani-sius’ schedule from a major confer-ence. It would be a big win for the program if it could come away with a point against a Big East school.

It was strength meets technicality. It was 2008 meets 2009. It was Megan Bellingham meets Tina Romag-

nuolo.It was a goal shared by two goal

scorers. And it was the first time in the two years that Syracuse’s leading scor-ers’ from 2008 and 2009 had donned Orange together. The first time they had connected. Finally.

With two minutes remaining in SU’s third game of the season versus Lehigh on Aug. 27, and with the Orange trailing by a goal, the senior forward Bellingham sailed a cross into the box where the sophomore attacking midfielder Romagnuolo headed it past Lehigh goalkeeper Lauren Mains. The goal put the Orange on the scoreboard for the first time all season and pre-vented SU from losing its second game of the season.
