Hoover economist Thomas Sargent wins Nobel Prize

By THE DAILY NEWS STAFF Hoover Senior Fellow Thomas Sargent was named the recipient of the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences by the Nobel committee early Monday morning. Sargent, known for his work in the field of macroeconomics and the rational expectations revolution, shared the prize with fellow American Christopher Sims of Princeton University. The two economists,both 68,conducted their influential research independently but will split the $1.48 million cash award. Sargent received the award for his research on the cause-and-effect relationship between the economy and policy instruments. His research focused on the rational expectations hypothesis, which assumes individuals base their expectations of economic variables on continuously updated and reinterpreted information. The hypothesis significantly altered the field of macroeconomics in the 1970s, causing researchers and policy makers since to reconsider policy instruments and statistics such as interest rates, inflation and unemployment. Sargent received his bachelors degree from the University of California at Berkeley in 1964 and his Ph.D. from Harvard University in 1968. Sargent, an expert in monetary economics, time series economics and macroeconomics, is a professor emeritus in Stanfords economics department and an economics professor at New York University. Sargent became a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution in 1987.From 1975 to 1987, he was a professor at the University of Minnesota. In the early 1990s, Sargent taught at the University of Chicago. Former president of the Econometric Society, the American Economic Association and the Society for Economic Dynamics, Sargent won the Nemmers Prize in Economics in 1997. He also served in the U.S. Army as a first lieutenant and captain and has co-authored five books, including Robustness, published in 2007. This announcement is the final

Pulitzer Prize-winning poet captivates audience

Mary Oliver unites range of community members
By CAROLINE CHEN
SENIOR STAFF WRITER

There was little applause at the end of each poem Mary Oliver read Monday night. Instead, the last line of each poem was met with a collective murmur of approval from the captivated audience. Despite the rain, the Pulitzer Prize-winning poet, invited by the Creative Writing department through the Jean and Bill Lane Lecture Series, drew an audience larger than Cemex Auditoriums capacity of 600. Oliver was introduced as a Virgilian guide to the natural world by Eavan Boland, head of the Creative Writing Department. Because of her poems, Boland said, the world continues to offer itself to our imagination. Jean Lane, sponsor of the lecture series,

was present at the reading. She discussed her decision to invite Oliver and said, She sees nature so much like I do, in the same spirit. I love her words. Oliver, 76, has published close to 30 volumes of poetry. Last night, she read a range of poems that spanned across various volumes, as well as some new, unpublished poetry. Threaded through the reading were three poems dedicated to her dog, Percy, named after the Romantic poet Percy Shelley. The Percy poems were really sweet, said David Jia, 13,after the reading.I really liked that she named her dog after Percy Shelley it made him seem so much more like a human. Throughout the reading, Oliver joked with her rapt audience. Youre so quiet, you people! she exclaimed after a poem ended to another quiet wave of satisfied sighs and appreciative murmurs. I should have some fighting poems! I dont have any.

New federal regulations require that students receiving federal aid funds meet five standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP), according to the University Financial Aid Office website. The new Program Integrity Regulations, which took effect July 1, require that students maintain a 2.0 minimum cumulative GPA, earn at least nine units per quarter and 36 units over three quarters, are enrolled for no longer than 18 undergraduate quarters and meet a minimum cumulative pace of progression that is set by each undergraduate institution. Stanfords Financial Aid Office has set the required pace of progression how many units a student completes divided by how many units a student attempts at 60 percent. The federal government doesnt want to pay for you to keep trying to take classes and dropping out at the last minute, said Director of Financial Aid Karen Cooper. Although the Department of Education has always maintained SAP requirements for students on federal or state financial aid, this set of regulations is the first to set a higher standard for academic progress than the Universitys own enrollment requirements, due to the new pace of progression regulation. I think its another prompt for students to be aware of the body of coursework they are signing up for and to think thoughtfully and deliberately in consultation with one or more advisers to ensure that the body of coursework that theyre planning for themselves is attainable, said Randy Williams, associate dean of Undergraduate Advising and Research (UAR). Due to differing standards between the Universitys enrollment requirements and the federal aid academic progress requirements, both UAR and the Financial Aid Office will be communicating with students on federal or state aid about their academic progress. Im a little concerned about how students will feel about the Financial Aid Office approaching them to talk about their academic situation, Cooper said. If a student fails to meet the SAP requirements, a student will enter Financial Aid Warning status for the following academic quarter but will remain eligible for federal student aid funds. However, these students must earn at least 12 units of credit while in Financial Aid Warning status. This status is only available once to students.A student will enter Financial Aid Ineligible status if they fail to the meet the SAP requirements for any subsequent aca-

Previous theories suggested that gamma rays are created where the matter entering the black hole loses its energy, near the point of entry. This new data suggests that both types of light are created in the same geographical region of the jet. If gamma rays are created farther from the black hole than previously thought, magnetic field lines must help energy travel outward from the black hole.

Benefits Office outlines changes to employee care

By THE DAILY NEWS STAFF Enrollment for employee healthcare plans are scheduled to be open from Oct. 24 to Nov. 10, following a series of town hall meetings concerning the Universitys decision to replace Health Net and PacifiCare with the new Blue Shield Exclusive Provider Organization (EPO). Employee plans with Health Net and PacifiCare will be replaced by the Blue Shield EPO on Jan. 1, according to the Stanford Benefits Office. The Benefits Office held town hall meetings throughout September to discuss the upcoming changes. The meetings were held at the Clark Center, Tresidder Memorial Union, Hopkins Marine Station and SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, among other locations. Employees with Health Net and PacifiCare were encouraged to check that their doctors and prescriptions fall under the Blue Shield Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) Network and the companys Drug Formulary. Employees who enroll in the new plan will not be required to select a primary care physician, as they will be able to see specialists and network doctors without referrals. The patient, however, will be responsible for obtaining preauthorization for non-elective and non-emergency procedures. Stanford will continue to offer the Blue Shield PPO and Blue Shield High-Deductible PPO health care plans,as well as a Kaiser Perma-

nente Health Maintenance Organization (HMO). The Benefits Office recently mailed the third of four newsletters about the upcoming changes. Other changes include a Blue Shield expanded care management program and optional Health Equity health savings accounts (HSA), with a contribution from Stanford, for employees enrolled in the Blue Shield High-Deductible PPO. Employees who complete the confidential Stanford Health and Lifestyle Assessment (SHALA) and Wellness profile by Nov.30 will be eligible under the BeWell Employee Incentive Program for discounts on their 2012 health care plan premiums.

SLAC study sheds light on black holes

By THE DAILY NEWS STAFF Most of the gamma rays produced by black holes are created much farther from the bodies than expected, according to a study by Stanford and SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory scientists. Data from more than 20 telescopes showed that the jets of particles that stream out of bright galaxies function differently than researchers previously thought. The recent work by scientists at the Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology, jointly located at SLAC and Stanford University, may help theorists better explain some of the keys to the universe,such as how its biggest accelerators operate. Above the Milky Way, galaxies called blazars prevail in the gammaray filled sky.At the center of a blazer is a black hole. When matter falls into such a black hole, some energy is spit back out into the universe in the form of jets of particles. Earlier theories have suggested that tendrils of magnetic field hold these jets together, while the light is produced when the particles revolve around these tendrils. However, the details of that process have been poorly understood. During more than a year of observation, researchers witnessed a 20-day-long flare in gamma rays

New technique explores role of RNA

By THE DAILY NEWS STAFF Researchers at the School of Medicine made a new technique to precisely identify DNA sequences and locations bound by regulatory

ribonucleic acids (RNAs), according to a School of Medicine statement. With this new information, researchers in these fields will now be able to understand how RNA regulates the expression of genes. Earlier techniques only allowed researchers to guess the activity of the RNA based on clues from the surrounding biological system, according to dermatology professor and researcher Howard Chang.This new technique, however, allows scientists to identify exactly where on the chromatin the RNAs are binding. The results, Chang said in the study, indicate that the regulatory RNA is focal, numerous and sitespecific. Messenger RNA, which transcribes genetic instructions encoded in DNA and facilitates proteinbuilding using that information, was identified 50 years ago. In the years since, the one-directional flow of information from DNA to RNA to protein became central to biology curricula. Regulatory RNA, however,contradicts that simplified picture because it binds to DNA and affects which genes are selected to become

proteins. Studying the role of regulatory RNA may lead to a better understanding of several cellular functions, influencing our understanding of cell development and regeneration and cancer. Chang and his lab identified some of the first known regulatory RNAs, also referred to as long intergenic non-coding RNAs, or lincRNAs. Chang was senior author of the work published in September, while graduate student Ci Chu was first author. Chu and Chang innovated a tiling approach using dozens of individually labeled nucleotide sequences to isolate the small portion of regulatory RNAs, or lincRNAs, that remains bound to chromatin. The research was funded by the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine, the National Institutes of Health, the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and the Agency for Science, Technology and Research of Singapore.

demic quarter. If a student enters Financial Aid Ineligible status, all federal aid is rescinded for that quarter unless the student appeals the decision to Stanford. Williams said that if a student creates a plan with his or her academic adviser for continued academic improvement, the student could once again qualify for financial aid for that quarter until improvement is established. Im guessing that were talking about less that one percent of the student population, Williams said, regarding the number of undergraduates this policy could affect. Were talking low double-digit numbers, 10 to 15. Extremely low numbers. The July 1 Program Integrity Regulations include other provisions that do not apply to Stanford because the Universitys students are either degree-seeking or ineligible for federal aid. For example, one provision states that programs that

award certificates rather than degrees must track how many of their students go on to careers in the pertinent field and if they are successful. The concern is that the motorcycle mechanic programs out there that are for-profit are allowing students to continue to enroll even though theyre not being successful over and over again just so [the programs] can get their money, Cooper said. The new regulations also require that schools have a net-price calculator on their financial aid web page by Oct. 29. Stanfords Financial Aid Office already maintains such a calculator to estimate what a Stanford education might cost once grants and scholarships are awarded, but the office has to rename the calculator as a net price calculator. A lot of whats going on these days at the federal level has to do with the nonprofit versus the private, for-profit sector, Cooper said. Theres a feeling of wanting to regulate that for-profit sector and unfortunately, when they do that, we all get swept up. Contact Alice Phillips at alicep1@ stanford.edu.

What can you do? However, she elicited enthusiastic applause when she read her iconic poems Wild Geese and The Summer Day, both which have been widely published. Oliver also kept up a steady stream of self-conscious banter between poems. Riffling through her own book to find the next poem, she said, to a wave of laughter,Im very organized, except that my organization isnt very good. Thats why theres a table of contents. She also drew chuckles when she commented, Im old and Im supposed to be laboring. Sometimes I want to sit down and have an ice-cream sundae and forget it. On a more serious note, she highlighted her concern about the environment,a theme evident in her poetry. I do worry a great, great, great deal about the environmental devastation of the world, she said.We are many, probably more than we should be as a species and we have to be careful about our usage of things. I worry about the little kids that I know now will they even know what the world was like? At the end of the reading, students and community members milled around in the rain, hoping to catch Oliver for a signing. You can just see she speaks to the heart of the whole community,

Because of her poems,the world continues to offer itself to our imagination.

Oh my God! Look at that! Dude.This dining hall is legit. One after the other, students climbed hurriedly up the stairs. Looking all around, with eyes wide open, the hungry hordes made their way to the second floor of the Arrillaga Family Dining Commons. The entire floor was buzzing with excitement, as people eagerly took their plates to the different food stations. As sunshine permeated through the large glass windows, students took their seats and chatted with friends inside or ventured to the outdoor seating on the terrace overlooking palm trees and the setting sun. One thing is clear:Arrillaga Family Dining Commons is anything but the average college dining hall. A collaborative effort between Stanford Dining, Stanford Athletics,

the School of Medicine and the Culinary Institute of America, Arrillaga Dining Commons seeks to meet the various needs of students and change the way people view their meals. Its truly a multi-purpose environment, with a place for cooking, exercising and learning,said Shirley Everett, senior associate vice provost of residential and dining enterprises. We really listened to the students, and we want this to be a place that students are proud of. Rebecca Amato 14 and a group of her friends were among the first to enter the Arrillaga Family Dining Commons. We had been anticipating the grand opening, so we waited outside beforehand because we wanted to beat the crowd,Amato said. It was really cool walking into the first level, she added. There were welcoming couches and pillows, which you dont normally see in a dining hall. It felt more like a resort. This enthusiasm is exactly what Everett had hoped for. Its great to see the looks of students who are in awe of the dining hall, she said. All they can say is, Wow, and when Stanford students are happy, Im happy. The dining commons incorporates the educational aspect of food and health with its Performance Dining Initiative, part of Stanford Dinings Eat Well program, and joins together technology, sustainability and nutritional themes. Unlike most other dining halls, Arrillaga Dining Commons seeks to educate students about the nutritional value of the food they eat. The dining hall focuses on six different health and nutritional categories, each of which students will have the opportunity to learn about through different wellness apps on the iPads scattered across the dining hall. It has been calculated that the average person consumes about 200 million meals in their lifespan, said Stanford Dining Executive Director Eric Montell.Our goal is to get students learning about how the healthy choices they make can influence their lifestyles. Anna Nti Asare 14 said she believes healthier options are a definite advantage of the new dining commons. The pre-made salads are really good, Nti Asare said, who is a vegetarian. She also appreciates how the dining commons accommodates the needs of students. Class schedules dont really fit nicely with the dining hall hours, so you end up having to buy food, Nti Asare said. But with Arrillaga, you can still eat in the dining hall. And thats how it was planned. This is a result of a great partnership with students, Montell said. The extended hours make it so that students dont have to compromise skipping meals because of their classes or other commitments. Daniel Bui 12 said that the Arrillaga Dining Commons is unlike any dining hall he has been to before. I regret that the Arrillaga dining hall wasnt an option when I was a sophomore, Bui said. Other nontraditional features can be found in the kitchen and the basement. We have a kitchen that is separated with a wall of glass so students can see the preparation of their food,Montell said.If you go downstairs, there is a multipurpose room, and there will be cooking and exercise classes held there. In addition, the dining commons will be the new host of The Dish, the late-night dining option that used to be at Stern.It is expected to open Oct.13. With all of its new features and educational initiatives as food for thought, the Arrillaga Family Dining Commons has the potential to change the way people view dining at Stanford.

Stop the Wall Street recruitment

T
he growing Occupy Wall Street (OWS) movement has focused national attention on the financial industrys power over American politics and policy. But it doesnt end there Wall Street also has extensive influence over the U.S. higher education system, especially at universities like Stanford. Three years after the financial industry nearly caused a second Great Depression, our nations top universities remain the primary training and recruiting grounds for these same reckless institutions.This is antithetical to the civic mission and responsibility of higher education, and it is time for the academic community to seriously address this problem. The financial industrys influence over higher education is deep and multifaceted, including student choice over majors and career tracks, career development resources, faculty and course offerings, and student culture and political activism. In 2010, even after the economic crisis, the financial services industry drew a full 20 percent of Harvard graduates and over 15 percent of Stanford and MIT graduates.This represented the highest portion of any industry except consulting, and about three times more than previous generations. As the financial industrys profits have increasingly come from complex financial products, like the collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) that ignited the 2008 financial meltdown, its demand has steadily grown for graduates with technical degrees. In 2006, the securities and commodity exchange sector employed a larger portion of scientists and engineers than semiconductor manufacturing, pharmaceuticals and telecommunications. The result has been a major reallocation of top talent into financial sector jobs, many of which are socially useless, as the chairman of the United Kingdoms Financial Services Authority put it.This over-allocation reduces the supply of productive entrepreneurs and researchers and damages entrepreneurial capitalism, according to a recent Kauffman Foundation report. Many of these finance jobs contribute to volatile and counter-productive financial speculation. Indeed, Wall Streets activities are largely dominated by speculative security trading and arbitrage instead of investment in new businesses. In 2010, 63 percent of Goldman Sachs revenue came from trading, compared to only 13 percent from corporate finance. Why are graduates flocking to Wall Street? Beyond the simple allure of high salaries, investment banks and hedge funds have designed an aggressive, sophisticated and well-funded recruitment system, which often takes advantage of students job insecurity. Moreover, elite university culture somehow still upholds finance as a prestigious and savvy career track. But university administrations are also responsible. At best, they have passively allowed the largest banks to dominate student recruitment;at worst,they have enthusiastically promoted these companies and encouraged students to enter finance. To this day, career development offices accept donations from the wealthiest banks in exchange for special recruitment access. For example, until recently, Stanfords Career Development Center featured Goldman Sachs as a Gold Partner, despite the company being under federal investigation for criminal trading practices.

Our nations top universities remain the primary training and recruiting grounds for these same reckless institutions.
The higher education community needs to begin a serious discussion about how to ensure checks and balances against finance, and prepare more students for socially productive careers in public service, entrepreneurship and scientific research. Some recent trends have been positive, like loan forgiveness for law school graduates entering public service. Universities should consider similar incentives for undergraduates, designing proactive, long-term strategies to encourage alternative career tracks. Let us be clear: pursuing a job on Wall Street isnt evil, and it goes without saying that we need a strong and efficient financial sector.But our generation cannot afford to continue shipping our best and brightest off to Wall Street. The United States and the world face enormous challenges in our lifetimes from climate change to global poverty and we need our top talent focused on solving these problems. Americas university system is one of our most prized national assets, benefiting from taxpayer support and providing invaluable public goods in the way of knowledge and human capital.It should stop serving as the vocational training center for reckless banks and hedge funds. This process will be difficult for many of us with friends and colleagues in finance. But those of us privileged enough to attend top universities should have the courage and responsibility to recognize the hard truth; an academic community that actively supports the same financial institutions whose rampant greed caused untold national hardship is a community on the brink of moral bankruptcy.

proceeded to tell me about his hope to do some business program run by Georgetown for older returning students and how happy he was to make a new friend. He even went as far as to make a deal with me; he would teach me Arabic if I helped improve his writing skills for the program (he taught me two whole words I cant pronounce to seal the deal). By the time I had arrived at the parking lot early I actually felt like I had made a friend, whether I had wanted to or not. In retrospect, it may not have been the brightest idea, but deep down inside, I genuinely believe in the kindness of strangers (you can judge me on my naivete later). Nonetheless, I left the taxi happy about the decision I made. Its probably not one Ill make again, but that little encounter taught me something valuable. Everyone is a stranger until you make them a friend. Even your best buddy since the fourth grade was just some shy kid in the corner until your teacher made you sit next to her in class and you realized you both love Sailor Moon. So if I can make a friend with Mohammed the taxi driver, just think of who you could meet. Do you want to be Camiras friend, too? Then you should email her at camirap@stanford.edu.

How do you make a friend?

ve never been the new kid. I never moved to a different city or even changed school districts. Yet whenever new people would pop up in class, I always wondered what it was like to have to start all over again and make friends. I generally tried to be nice to them for good karma just in case I was ever in their position, but I couldnt fathom what it felt like knowing everyone knows everyone but you. Or at least, that was true until I got to Howard University. Before coming to Howard, one of my biggest concerns was how I was going to get to know anyone. I was petrified, thinking I was going to become a loner who spent 20 out of 24 hours in my room and sat alone every day in the dining hall, not by choice, but because no one wanted to sit next to me. Luckily, most of my fears were unfounded. Ive been fortunate enough to find cool kids to run around and get lost in DC with, yet I still wonder how we got to that point. But this past weekend, I made a friend. It was Saturday morning and I had an hour to get to the MegaBus parking lot to meet my friends so we could head out for a fun weekend in Philly. Sadly, the Metro stops by campus were closed for maintenance during the holiday weekend. They promised free shuttles to compensate for the atrocity, but I arrived at the nearest stop with my bags in hand only to see the shuttle pull away. A little disheartened, I

didnt have time to wait for the next one, so I decided to walk to the next stop a few blocks down. My dorm is not located in the nicest part of DC. Its historical and has some places worth visiting, but its still a bit sketchy (though its nothing to fear with an angry face and quick pace).About halfway between the Shaw-Howard and Mt. Vernon stops, I saw these dudes on the corner. Dudes on the corner are nothing new, but these ones looked extra grimy. At that same moment, I saw this taxi pull up behind me and the cab driver, who was more than old enough to be my grandfather, asked me if I needed a ride. So I looked at my options: walk past these crusty men who will hit on anything that looks female or pay the price of the taxi. Taxi won. At first, I was a little surprised when he encouraged me to sit in the front seat. My mind instantly jumped to the worst-case scenario, and I kept thinking this is how all those overly dramatic Lifetime movies start. But when I saw the state of the backseat, my hesitation ebbed. Once inside, he immediately told me that I looked like one of his people. I didnt know how to respond, so he clarified by having me guess what East African country we were from (I wrongly guessed Ethiopia). I never knew I was Somali, but you learn something new about yourself every day. As he continued driving, he asked me all the basic get-to-know-you questions, and I kept one eye on the meter that he never turned on. He

On the content of Stanford Department of Public Safety alerts

To the Editor: It is extremely annoying to be associated with a world-renowned center of learning and to be regularly bombarded with University bulletins that reveal extreme ignorance. The latest example is an Oct. 1 email from the Stanford Police concerning a robbery on Palm Drive near El Camino Real in which the suspect is described as a Hispanic male . . . It is only correct to use the term Hispanic to describe people who share a linguistic and cultural heritage. It is not a term of race or ethnicity. Hence using the term Hispanic to describe someones appearance is meaningless since it can include anyone along the entire color spectrum of the human race. It appears that many people in

the United States, including the Stanford Police, still have a hang up recognizing that people can be of mixed ethnicities. The perfect example of this is the current inhabitant of the White House who is often described by the U.S. media as African American when he is as much Caucasian as anything else.Accordingly, the term Hispanic or Latino has crept into the popular lexicon as a descriptive term to describe someone of mixed European and indigenous American ancestry, an individual who in Latin America would be described as mestizo or in Canada as metis. This does not make the use of the term Hispanic for that purpose proper. More importantly, an educational institution such as Stanford University should not tolerate its incorrect usage.

nce upon a time in high school, I dreamt about a boy. Dont let your imagination run wild yet it was a dream about a conversation. After waking up, though, I felt differently toward him. I cant remember if it was anger or awkwardness, but I avoided him that day at school.Whether or not he noticed my weird spell was pointless to discuss because,in reality,it had nothing to do with him and everything to do with my head. And beyond that, he was still one of my closest friends. Unfortunately, the sudden and unilateral way that relationships shift gears is generally a more pessimistic story. Sometimes were the culprits: qualities we once found attractive can turn repulsive,and first-date high notes can be hijacked by hokiness.So we attempt to slyly exit scene.Its like the book that loses its magic: the words never changed, but you find yourself wondering what you found so interesting in the first place. Other times were the victims: all texts, calls and communications have stopped, and we wonder how we missed the vote that kicked us off the island.Yet these lightning-speed reversals dont come with a warning, just frustration and lingering questions:how much of our relationships are in our heads? How often do we project our own false ideas onto others,and how often do we unknowingly receive them? I was chatting recently with a friend about this. Hes one of the most self-admittedly nice guys I know and truly embraces that. He tries to meet everyone halfway, on good terms, convinced that its possible to be friends with everyone. (Indeed, our semi-opposite philosophies about people lead to very long and colorful discussions.) He suspects that his pro-amiableness is why new relationships tend to form spon-

taneously before him like fire and why, at least in his head, they end just as quickly. Essentially, his commitment to see good in the other person doesnt always outshine the truth of personality differences and longterm issues. Its the classic case of how we tend to see what we want to see for as long as we possibly can. In relationships,its mostly a problem of timing: a promise has usually already been made before we realize it was with someone we partially conjured up for ourselves. That notorious line, Its not you; its me, might have some real bearing here . . . If only that were more comforting, though. Perhaps unsurprisingly, I have many more friends on the other side, suffering from their crushes seemingly inexplicable changes of heart.One of my best girlfriends,who is smart and isnt wasting time on the subject, is simply annoyed by her slight curiosity. After all, with any new encounter, there is the chance that we inadvertently hit their relationship deal-breaker and unwittingly call the whole thing off;then comes the inevitable quest to deduce what horrific thing it was that we said or did. But the end of a thing, fling or promise ring can also come from arbitrary personal realizations in the other persons mind. Ironically, this could be the most comforting thing in the world: we cant take credit for everything that happens to us (though we try very hard to, often subconsciously). The de facto definition of relationshipis everything that exists and occurs between two people. In this complicated world,though,everyone brings his or her baggage on board. Its never solely about how two people behave or feel when theyre with each other. Its also about everything those two people are, respectively,

when they are alone. Dynamics change and patterns seem inconsistent because, ultimately, we dont all know each other enough to know what their consistent really is.And assuming so can lead to too many hurt feelings down the road. But this story doesnt end like that.Despite the infuriating nature of ambiguity, we must admit it makes the good relationship that much greater. Despite the black holes of our highly unknowable heads, we do meet people who see something true in us and whats more still want to be with us. Two independent people, with their mysteries in tow, can collide at the right place at the right time . . . and voila! Friends, boyfriends, girlfriends this is how it happens.

Cardinal comes back to top Beavers, Ducks on road

After losing three in a row away from Maples Pavilion, the No. 7 Stanford womens volleyball team picked up its first two road conference wins of the season against Oregon State (11-7, 3-5 Pac12) and No. 16 Oregon (12-4, 5-3) this past weekend. The Cardinal (12-3, 6-3) improved to fifth in a Pac-12 race that boasts five top-10 teams nationally and no undefeated squads. The road trip opened shakily, with Stanford dropping its first set of the weekend to a young and unranked Oregon State team. Up 22-18, the Cardinal failed to close out the game, with errors from sophomore outside hitter Rachel Williams and redshirt junior middle blocker Jessica Walker allowing the Beavers to make a seven-point run for the 25-22 set victory.

t might be the American vs. English cultural barrier, but I cant help feeling the Red Zone crowd is lacking something. I cant claim that my home soccer team has the most vocal and passionate fans,but Im used to an edgier and more involved atmosphere in stadiums. Thankfully, violence at soccer grounds in the U.K. is mostly a thing of the past, but the fans can still be pretty intimidating and emotions run high. To me, the standard cheer on the Farm of Go, Stanford just doesnt sound right. Go where? The British equivalent would be Come on, Stanford. But while on first inspection that seems almost the same, it really isnt. It usually comes with a heavy dose of pain and even anger, and is never chanted en masse.It is a personal cry of frustration in a desperate attempt to inject some kind of stimulation into your team.Beat Cal is just as bad; what else would the team be trying to do against Berkeley? Fans back home would instead direct their energy at insulting the opposition. Really good insults are definitely something I miss.There is nothing like a few tens of thousands of fans simultaneously letting an opposing player know that they think he is,in fact,shit. Its even funnier when that swearword is so loud and so clear that TV crews can do nothing about broadcasting it live across the airwaves. But this is not about simply being offensive; opposing teams should feel intimidated just by walking into the stadium and hearing the crowd noise, and I just dont think that happens here. Maybe its just a Stanford thing; friends who did their undergraduate degrees elsewhere seem to have a much more colorful cheering vocabulary.The Cardinal fans,in comparison, seem pretty tame, and I have to criticize myself for this too. Our array of chants seems pretty limited and very bland,and there is a lot of silence coming from The Red Zone. Perhaps this is because,even though we might have the longest winning streak in the nation, we have not been at the top long enough to really be considered a football school I doubt many of you came here because of the football program and developing a suitably passionate following is not an overnight thing. It might seem like the least of our athletic worries USC, Oregon and Andrew Lucks eventual departure will probably be bigger stories but college football is a game where you need every edge you can get.A single loss can wreck a season, and with teams only playing each other once a year, home-field advantage has the potential to make a big impact. Partly this is the simple logistics of a team being able to walk to the game rather than travel hundreds of miles, but the mental aspect shouldnt be underestimated. Fans of Turkish soccer team Galatasaray greet their opposition with the banner Welcome to Hell. I couldnt put it any better. I suspect this is why the Department of Athletics has opened up all home games to the student body for free,and why there are football incen-

WOMENS VOLLEYBALL STANFORD 3 OREGON 1 10/8, Eugene, Ore.

With momentum on the home teams side, Oregon State stayed close with the Card throughout the second game. Leading 22-20, Stanford again let the Beavers back into the game, with a kill from freshman outside hitter/middle blocker Arica Nassar fueling Oregon State to a 23-23 tie.The Cardinal called a timeout and came back on the floor to win back-to-back points a kill by redshirt freshman outside hitter Lydia Bai followed by a block by Walker and junior setter Karissa Cook and the set, 25-23. The next two games proved less dramatic, with Stanford winning sets three and four, 25-17 and 25-16, respectively. After a Cook-kill tied the third set 10-10, a string of six consecutive plays from Williams four kills, a shared block with Walker and a solo block helped the Card pull away from the Beavers. Stanford never trailed in the fourth set. Williams tallied 22 kills and 18 digs, while Cook put up 47 assists and 14 digs. This was the ninth double-double of the season for each, the most in the Pac-12. It was a big night for Stanfords defensive specialists, with sophomore Mary Ellen Luck registering a career-high four aces and matching her previous best 11 digs, while junior DS Hannah

Nnemkadi, Chiney among 30 named to preseason Wooden list
The Ogwumike sisters were two of the 30 players named to the 201112 Wooden Award Preseason List by the Los Angeles Athletic Club on Monday. The Wooden Award, which has been given each of the past 35 years, is presented annually to the best player in mens basketball and to the best player in womens basketball. Nnemkadi, a senior forward, led the Pac-10 with 17.5 points per game and a 58.6 percent shooting percentage. She was the Pac-10 Player of the Year in 2009-10 and was an All-American in each of the past two seasons. Her younger sister Chiney, a sophomore forward, burst onto the scene last year with 11.7 points per game and a team-leading eight rebounds per game. She was last years Pac-10 Freshman of the Year and became an imposing defensive force for the Cardinal. The two Ogwumikes are the only Pac-12 players to make the list, which is dominated by players from top schools. Of the 30 players on the list, 16 come from Connecticut, Notre Dame, Baylor, Maryland, Miami, Tennessee and Stanford. With team leaders Jeanette Pohlen and Kayla Pedersen gone to the WNBA, Stanford will rely even more heavily on the frontcourt pair from Cypress, Tex. The Ogwumikes will kick off their second and final season together on the Farm with a road game at Texas on Nov. 11.

Card breaks goalless drought

Seventy-seven minutes and 45 seconds into Sunday nights match,it looked like the mens soccer team might be doomed to yet another frustrating 1-0 defeat at the hands of archrival California. The Cardinal struggled to capitalize on several solid scoring chances,as has been the story for much of a thus-far trying season.Stanford seemed to be on its way to a third straight defeat to open Pac-12 play. But in just two seconds, the time it took junior Adam Jahn to slam a 25-yard free kick off the underside of

the crossbar and into the back of the net, that all changed.The Cardinals defense held firm, and while the offense was shut out the rest of the way, head coach Bret Simons team managed to halt its losing streak and stay alive in the brutal Pac-12 Conference. Stanford (3-6-2, 0-2-1 Pac-12) had lost six straight matches against the Golden Bears dating back to 2007, and John Fitzpatricks header past redshirt sophomore goalie Jason Dodson quieted a large crowd of 2,919 at Laird Q.Cagan Stadium. Sophomore midfielder J.J. Koval said that conceding yet another early goal made things very difficult but

did not stop the players from feeling that they were in control. We came out hard and really rode the energy of crowd, Koval said.They scored the first goal, and it is really tough to go down early. But we kept working hard and pushing, and in the second half I really thought we had the better chances. Stanford did not, however, have the most chances in the half, as Cal outshot the Card 10-5 after the break. Dodson was kept busy, making three second-half saves to keep the game close. But the Stanford offense started

STANFORD SPLITS EAST COAST TRIP

After cruising to a 4-1 victory at Harvard, the Stanford field hockey team fell against No. 12 New Hampshire, 6-3. The loss was just the Cards second all season and its first since August.

The Stanford field hockey team had won eight consecutive matches, one short of the school record, before heading out last weekend on a two-game East Coast road trip. With the spotlight on, the Cardinal lived up to its No. 7 national ranking with an easy 4-1 victory over previously red-hot Harvard. But on FIELD HOCKEY Sunday, Stanford (10-2, 3 3-0 NorPac) saw its win STANFORD streak snapped in a 6-3 NEW HAMPSHIRE 6 showdown with No. 12 10/9, Durham, N.H. New Hampshire. The loss in the Granite State was just the Cards second all season, and its first since losing a tough match at No. 4 Connecticut in the second match of the year. The Wildcats jumped on the board first, as All-American Whitney Frates scored two of her game-high three goals in the first 20 minutes.Both were unassisted,but New Hampshire was also pressing as a team, earning four penalty corners and outshooting Stanford in the first half. But the Cardinal responded, fighting back with a goal in the 29th minute from sophomore attacker Courtney Haldeman off a nice centering pass from senior attacker Stephanie Byrne. At that point, it appeared as though

to zero in, particularly after Simon pushed an extra attacker forward in the formation to pressure Cals back line.After not putting a single shot on frame in the first half, the Cardinal got its best scoring opportunity of the game when Jahn broke free and finally forced Cal goalie Bobby Gogatz into a save. And then, finally, came the breakthrough. Junior Dersu Abolfathi earned a free kick in a very dangerous area, 25 yards away from goal, just on the edge of the penalty circle and straight in front of the net.Jahn stood over the kick, paused, and then unleashed a perfectly driven ball to the top-right corner.It barely nicked off the crossbar, leaving Gogatz diving helplessly in its wake. The goal was a great relief, Jahn said.I had gotten really close to scoring on a free kick a few times in previous games. Funnily enough,each set piece was more or less from the same place on the field, so to sort of progress and get closer and closer to finally scoring was awesome. It was Jahns team-leading third goal of the season and also snapped the teams 300-minute scoreless streak.The crowd roared back to life, and Stanford pressed forward with a renewed energy. Redshirt senior Garrett Gunther had two good chances in the final minutes two of his five shots for the game but the game went to overtime tied at one. You know, obviously weve been struggling to put the ball in the back of the net, Koval said. Which sounds discouraging, but at the same time were creating a lot of chances. Adams goal was beautiful, and the whole game showed a lot about our teams character; fight hard and stick by each others side. Cal went back on the offensive in the first extra period, but the Cardinals defense was up to the challenge, snuffing out any real scoring chances with relative ease. And in the second extra period, Gunther led a late charge that saw a flurry of Stanford shots test the Bears defense. Although none found the back of the net, it was a positive sign for the team as it gets close to the halfway point of conference play. I think it was a big goal for the team because we all felt we deserved a result last night,Jahn said Monday. We havent gotten a result against Cal since Ive been here,so this is a good step in that direction and getting that first win against them. Seven games remain in the regular season, including a two-game homestand against Washington and Oregon State on the schedule this weekend.Koval was optimistic that the team can use the 1-1 draw against last years Pac-12 champions Cal to gather momentum for a stretch run. The good thing about our Pac12 Conference is that you get to play everyone twice, he said. Even though we didnt get the results we wanted against San Diego State and UCLA, we get a second chance coming up. And who knows what can happen. We still have a good amount of games in the season anything is possible in the Pac-12. Contact Miles Bennett-Smith at milesbs@stanford.edu. Stanford might have found its rhythm, but New Hampshire attacker Emma Erler broke free in front of the cage and put away the Wildcats third goal for a 3-1 lead just before halftime. After the break, New Hampshire poured it on, as Hayley Rausch knocked in a pair of goals the second off her own rebound to push the lead to four. Frates found a little space and put the game all but out of reach 10 minutes before time. Yet Stanford refused to quit, and redshirt sophomore attacker Emily Henriksson cut into the lead with a goal two minutes before Byrne converted a redirect to give the Cardinal a glimmer of hope with just a few minutes remaining. But New Hampshires defense held firm, putting a slight damper on the weekend. Fridays match was a much different story, however, as Harvards defense struggled to contain the Cardinals attack. Stanford outshot the Crimson 23-5 for the match and scored three unanswered goals Harvard had allowed three goals in its previous four matches to salt the game away early on. Junior defender Becky Dru added to her recent string of success, as last years NorPac Defensive Player of the Year continued an offensive surge this season with her 10th and 11th goals, both off penalty corners. Harvard didnt really threaten until late in the second half, when it scored a nice goal past redshirt senior goalie Ale Moss to trim Stanfords lead to two. But Drus second goal of the match three minutes before the end of the match put an exclamation point on the victory. Stanford is now 6-2 away from home after splitting the weekend matches, and the Cardinal will have to travel for three of its five remaining regular season games, including a road trip to Michigan and Michigan State in two weeks. Stanford will have the advantage of playing at home, though, for the NorPac Championship in the first week of November.The Cardinal has won all five of its matches at the Varsity Turf. With only 16 spots up for grabs, all of the remaining matches will be critical to securing a berth in the NCAA Tournament, slated to begin Saturday, Nov. 12, when the top eight teams will also have home-turf advantage. Next up for the Card is a threegame stretch to complete NorPac play, beginning Friday when Stanford hosts Pacific at 7 p.m. Contact Miles Bennett-Smith at milesbs@stanford.edu.

tives to show up for some other sports. But creating a better atmosphere is more than just a numbers game. Red Zone points were offered at Cagan Stadium on Sunday for students coming to watch the Stanford vs. Cal mens soccer game; the result was a pretty big turnout, and the stands started off packed. However, filling the seats with the uninitiated didnt seem to work very well. Few people seemed really caught up in the game, and a recording of the Band playing All Right Now and a brief appearance from the Axe Committee failed to light the fires.When Cal scored in the first half, quite a few people seemed to head for the exits, and by extra time the game was tied 1-1 at the end of regulation and so 20 extra minutes were played in the hope of a result there were a lot of empty seats. I dont wish to cast doubt on my fellow students motives, but it also looked suspiciously like quite a few were simply scanning their ID cards before heading home. At the end of the day,any amount of incentives or pushing from above wont work. We need to do this ourselves. Looking at all the various groups that work to get us pumped up at games, I think our best bet lies with the Axe Committee. This is no criticism of the Band, the Tree or the Dollies, because they do a great job and are idiosyncratically Stanford, but they already do about as much as they can.The Axe Committee instead confuses me. Sure, they give out free t-shirts and honk the big train whistle, but it seems to me more an excuse just to get on the field. So I want to offer a challenge to the Axe Committee.Come sit among us, spread yourselves out across The Red Zone and lead not from the front but by example. Invent some new, more intimidating cheers and teach them to everyone around you so the whole crowd can sing and chant as one.And most of all,be loud.

Benjamin tied her career best with 19 digs. For Oregon State, junior outside hitter Camille Saxton tied her career best with 22 kills in addition to 12 digs, five blocks and two aces. Sophomore libero Becky Defoe led the match with 27 digs, and junior setter Megan McBride notched 42 assists and 11 digs. The following evening, Stanford traveled to Eugene to take on thenNo. 15 Oregon. Like the night before, the Cardinal dropped a 25-22 first set decision before rallying to overtake the Ducks on their home court in three consecutive sets. The Cardinal trailed for the bulk of the first set, retying the score at 16-16 for the last time in the game. Oregon would answer with a four-point run three of which came off Stanford hitting er-

rors before junior outside hitter Alaina Bergsma closed out the victory with two final kills for the Ducks. The second set remained even through its halfway mark until a kill by Wopat and an Oregon hitting error gave the Card a twopoint cushion at 15-13, which soon became a five-point cushion at 2116. Back-to-back Bergsma kills kept the Ducks hopes alive, but another Wopat kill, an ace and a kill from freshman outside hitter Morgan Boukather sealed the victory at 25-20. Set three would mirror set two, with the Card pulling away from the Ducks several points at a time after being tied at 14-14. Though two Bergsma kills and another from sophomore middle blocker Ariana Williams kept Oregon in the game at match point, a Stanford timeout followed by a missed serve from the Ducks gave the Card a 2520 set three win. The fourth set was the closest of the evening, with seven lead

changes and 14 tied scores. Stanford would fight to win the set and match 25-23 with Bai killing the final two balls for the Card. Three Stanford players had kill totals in the double digits, with Wopat and Williams putting down 15 apiece Wopat with a phenomenal .520 hitting percentage and Bai contributing another 10. Cook tallied yet another doubledouble with 45 assists and 15 digs, while freshman libero Kyle Gilbert led the team with 17 digs. Bergsma shined for the Ducks with a match-high 26 kills, while junior outside hitter Katherine Fischer added 10. Sophomore setter Lauren Plum registered 47 assists and 17 digs, and junior libero Haley Jacob picked up 20 digs. This weekend, Stanford returns home to take on Washington State and No. 3 Washington. The Cardinal will face the Cougars on Friday at 7 p.m. in Maples Pavilion. Contact Caroline Caselli at carolinecaselli@stanford.edu.
