By JEAN MCCARTY Entrance to keg parties and other residential hall social events would be more convenient if the University follows a new ASDU resolution. The resolution, which passed Monday night, states that Public Safety would "disregard door alarms for desig­ nated doors during specified times so as to allow the flow of student traffic through the doors without causing safety hazards, or needlessly using Public Safety's time." Alarms sound if a door is open for more than two minutes. Duke Public Safety receives many false alarms, keeping them from more important matters, the resolu­ tion states. "[Public Safety] gets so many calls, they start to ignore them," said Kevin Loftus, the resolution's sponsor. "By specifying which doors are allowed to be open, they know which ones to go check." Living groups would be able to petition to prop their doors for as long as four hours on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, the resolution states. CHRISTINE KEMPER/THE CHRONICLE Loftus downplayed concerns about the safety of other living groups in a given building. All groups in a building Silver bells would need to agree for the policy to take effect, he said. So these are the things that make all that noise on Sunday mornings.

The fact that President Bush has endorsed these pro­ posals understandably makes many suspicious of his motives and gives reason to believe that the fear of the NAACP and LDF is justified. However, if these proposals are properly advocated and distinguished from the clear meaning and spirit ofthe Brown decision—that of prohib­ iting racial segregation premised on the view that blacks were inferior to whites—any nefarious effort to later use these proposals as a basis for circumventing Brown's prohibition against "separate but equal" discrimination can be easily rebuffed. Frankly, I wonder whether the NAACP and LDF are becoming a little timid at a time when our federal judi­ ciary—most significantly the U.S. Supreme Court—is dominated by conservative judges who are typically hos­ tile to the black civil rights agenda. But more importantly, I wonder if their decision-makingboards can identify with the problems facing black males growing up in our nation's inner cities, or whether they have any proposals of their own for dealing with the black male crises. In light of the federal court injunction the Detroit School Board agreed to do the next best thing for the time being: keep the African-oriented educational and mentoring concept ofthe all-male academies, but allow *W UPTIMES-WW** females to enroll.
