In a heated and at times disorganized ses- sion, the Duke Student Government Senate decided not to take direct action against the

Duke College Republicans, which has come under fire since the impeachment of for- mer club chair Justin Robinette, a junior.

At their final meeting of the academic year
Wednesday night, senators passed the annu-

al budget for 2010-2011 and considered an amendment to suspend the College Repub- licans\u2019 charter, rights and privileges because

Casimir brings Haiti to Duke
by Ryan Brown
THE CHRONICLE

Say \u201cHaiti\u201d on campus these days, and you are sounding a series of buzzwords: earthquake, poverty, corruption, tragedy.

But long before the Caribbean nation was a headline splashed across interna- tional newspapers, it was something else for Jean Casimir\u2014home. And in his four months at Duke, the Mellon Visiting Pro- fessor at the Center for Latin American & Caribbean Studies has sought to pro- vide the University with an understand- ing of his country that goes deeper than a natural disaster.

\u201cSo many countries accuse Haiti of failing, when really the world has failed Haiti,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s fundamental that we get people to talk about this place, and ask questions without just assuming they know the answers.\u201d

When it comes to sharing Haiti with the world, Casi- mir has a lifetime of experience. An acclaimed expert of social change and development at the University of Haiti,

his academic career has taken him from the Caribbean to the Congo to Columbia University. His work has been published in four languages. His globetrotting, accolade- stacked resume does not end there: Casimir is also the for- mer Haitian ambassador to the United States under Presi- dent Jean-Bertrand Aristide.

While he may be used to fielding demands from the world\u2019s most seasoned diplomats, this semester Casimir faced a far different crowd: Duke students. He teaches two courses on Haitian society at the University, which has been an experience that brought him face-to-face with how American students perceived his country\u2014if they knew about it at all.

\u201cTo be honest, at the beginning of the semester most of my [undergraduate] students had no idea about Haiti,\u201d he said. \u201cOr if they knew the Haiti of today, they did not know where it had come from.\u201d

But for Casimir, that lack of understanding is hardly new. Having spent much of his adult life in voluntary exile to avoid the grip of the brutal father-son Duvalier regime in Haiti, he developed a deep understanding

The Duke community was notified of senior Billy Dwight\u2019s death in an e-mail Wednesday night.

The circumstances surrounding his death have not been made public, though it did not occur in Durham County and foul play is un- likely, Vice President for Student Affairs Larry Moneta wrote in the e-mail, sent at 10:12 p.m. An investigation regarding the death is being conducted by local authorities, Moneta said in an interview Wednesday night.

\u201cWe are deeply saddened by this loss and offer our deepest condolences to Bil- ly\u2019s friends and family,\u201d he said.

Moneta said the incident does not indi- cate a threat to the Duke community. He was notified of Dwight\u2019s death at approxi- mately 5 p.m. Wednesday.

Dwight, 23 and a native of Kerners- ville, N.C., studied psychology and con- ducted an independent research project on \u201cMeasurement of Stress Reactivity in Different Virtual Environments.\u201d He was

information meeting on
undergraduate research
& other opportunities

Monday, April 26
12:00 PM
Multicultural Center
(Lower Level, Bryan Center)
* lunch provided *

The Haiti lab will provide a space
where experts in Haitian culture,
history and language can work with
scholars from other areas of the
humanities and social sciences,
along with legal specialists, experts
in engineering and technology,
medical practitioners, librarians,
archivists and other interested
experts, to develop plans to
contribute to Haiti\u2019s reconstruction.
The lab will help produce books,
articles, web resources and
pedagogical materials -- notably
including those in and about Haitian
Creole -- that help expand Haitian
studies in both the United States
and Haiti. It also will serve as a
resource for media outlets seeking
to learn about Haiti.

The lab\u2019s co-directors are
professors Deborah Jenson and
Laurent Dubois. They are joined by
two core faculty af\ue000liates, Guy-Uriel
Charles and Kathy Walmer.

Senate confirms
Schroeder for
Asst. AG post

Nowicki hosts NPR\u2019s Stasio
for online book discussion
by Maggie Love
THE CHRONICLE

As final exams approach, it may be difficult for under- graduates to fathom pleasure reading. But more than 230 members of the Duke community tuned in Wednesday night to a webcast of the DukeReads book of the month.

Steve Nowicki, dean and vice provost for under- graduate education, and National Public Radio\u2019s Frank Stasio, host of the live program \u201cThe State of Things,\u201d discussed Ann Patchett\u2019s 2001 novel \u201cBel Canto\u201d on the

live webcast.

During the webcast, Nowicki and Stasio discussed the development of relationships in the text, which tells the story of an extravagant birthday party that turns into a four-month-long hostage situation after terrorists take over. Nowicki and Stasio examined the themes of love, hope, survival and terrorism in terms of the novel\u2019s strong visual setting, ambiguity and abrupt ending.

Christopher Schroeder, Charles S. Murphy professor of law and public policy studies at Duke School of Law, was confirmed today by the U.S. Senate to serve as assis- tant attorney general for the Justice Department Office of Legal Policy.

Schroeder was originally nominated for the position by President Barack Obama May 21, 2009, but the Senate did not act on the nomination during its session last year. Obama resubmitted Schroeder\u2019s name in January.

Schroeder served in former presi- dent Bill Clinton\u2019s administration as acting attorney general in the Office of Legal Counsel at the Department of Justice.

\u201cI am pleased to welcome Chris

back to the Department of Justice,\u201d At- torney General Eric Holder said in a statement Wednes- day. \u201cThe Office of Legal Policy serves a crucial role at the department in coordinating some of our most im- portant projects and initiatives. Chris is an experienced and talented attorney, and I look forward to working with him on behalf of the American people.\u201d

In a February interview with The Chronicle, Schroeder called the nomination a surprise and said he was delighted to have been considered for the position and be seen as someone fitting for the role.

Schroeder, who is the current director of Duke\u2019s Pro- gram in Public Law, also said in February that he intends to return to Duke to teach after his tenure in the Department of Justice.
