    Las, week Colgate was fommate enough to ha\'C the imcrna1ionally acclaimed author
    Tim Flannery on campus co speak a.bom his book, 71,e \'Vtathrr Makn1 and the variom
    challenges that glob:111 clim:uc change presents 10 our future. He w.lS dear 1ha~ Colgate
    could bC' doing more to cake steps to be a more environmentally friendly campus and com ..
    mcnted that lltudents must take the le.id in 01his movement.
    We arc glad that Mr. Flannery wa.s able co speak 10 the \..olga1e Communi1y and hope
    10 use the knowledge gainc..-d from 7/u Whuhrr Makm and his talk on campu~ 10 help
    snadcnu ad,·:ance an environmentally friendly agend-'.
    When we ,-.·ere cl«ted in April, we immcdi;ucly began a K"arch for a student that was
    a motiva1cd, imelligem, ana more environmenrally friendly university. We are proud to repon that senior Nicole
    Svajlenka, $GA Policy Coordinator for Environmenral Initiatives, is doing a f.tn tastic job
    and making significant progress.
    Through the hard work of Nicole, the SCA wdership, and ,he SGA Senate, we art
    proud 10 announce that the SGA is going to be beginning ~em.I environmental iniriap
    tivcs over the ncx1 month. Some of the initiatives will reduce use of bottled water. incrc.i.sc
    recycling, use more biodegradable containers, utilize ahcrna1ive sources of energy. and
    decrease energy~The iniri:uivcs will be Laid om in detail in the coming weeks. but we ho~ that you will
    continue to rhink about the choices you make every dme you make the decision whcrher
    to walk or dri,.,e, recycle or throw out, or whether to turn off the light when you leave the

    entire Colgate Community in the coming months to implement significant changes to
    make Colgate as environmentally friendly as possible.

    LETTER TO THE EDITOR

    Building Green at 'Gate
    BY LYLE ROELOFS
    ,,,.,_,.JD<.. ,fdH~

    I am writing regarding an artide in last week's Maroo11PNt"UIS, in which cnvironmentalp
    Lst Tim Flannery was quoted as being ·shocked to learn that the new Ho Science Center is
    not a.n accredited 'green' building." Flannery's talk was cxcelJent ove.rall and that panicular
    commen1 l5 significant and wonhy of response. Con.sisie.n1 with the current policy of the
    Colgate administration, the Ho Science U .n te.r, in fact, was built to comply wilh green
    standards a.s defined by the industry·srandar-d Lcadenhip in Energy and Environmental
    O..ig,, (LEED) Green Building luting Sy,tem. Official cenl6auion, though, generally
    adds two to three percent to consuuafon cos:1 or, in the case of Ho, nearly $1.3 million, to
    the total project cost. While~ cndeavor to construct and renovate our f.tcilities to LE.ED
    standards we have chosen not to pay the costs that would accompany their ce.ttification.
    While there is little disagreement over the wisdom of consuucling buildings to L£ED
    standards - not only is the environmental impact reduced, but also the operating costs of
    such buildings arc lower thus hdping to ofnc1 the extra constructfon costs ove.r time - the
    value of certificalion itself is a maner of d~ion. No doub1 certi.fication is a source of
    pride and docs make a public .st2teme.nt, but in itself it docs not increase the sustainability
    of lhe building or reduce. its cncrgy usage. We opted to invest those additional funds in
    classroom facilidcs, laboratory equipment, and suppon for research and collaboration. We
    adhered to green building standards, but prioritiud the student and faculty experience in
    the building over the official .stamp of approval. This discussion comes at an important
    time for Colgate in terms of our commitmem 10 sustainabiliry. Over the past several ycan,
    we have launched many green initiatives on campus, but the time ha.s come for us to aJ>
    proach this important topic comprehensively, as a communiry. That is the goal of the En.
    vironmental Initiative, a group of students, faculty, and staff chat is working on dC"Vcloping
    a university·wide structure for monitoring programs, generating new ideas, and setting a
    course for our efforts as a univc:rsiry communiry. 7hr Maroon•Ntws' Gavin Leighton put it
    weJJ in writing. •As we move forward as students, a school, and a community, it is vita.I for
    us to considcr our voice and action .so th.at we may be able 10 move toward a sustainable
    fu1u1e. It is important to do this .since ~ will be sharing a common environment in the
    ytantocomc."'

    Every Colg:att student having gone

    dirough CORE 151 and 152 has been asked
    to make some connection between the En~
    lightenmem and modernity. Western civilization gives mon of ir.s credit to the likes- of
    Voltaire, Kant, Descartes and Newton. They
    wrote about free speech, dcmocr.acy and the
    scientific method. And in affirming these
    v:a.lucs, they denied those that were in opposition to them: wisdom, divine illuminarfon,
    the controlled destiny of mankind.
    So the question is, how docs thc- religion
    of Islam, which does not deny these things,
    fit into the paradigm of the Enlightenment?
    How docs the fact that the revelation of the
    Qur'a.n, occurring long before Montt$(1uicu
    could pick up a pen, and functions in lslam
    as the final affirm:uion of God, and argu-

    ably, hum:an progcc,s, pl•y inw ,his?
    The result is that we see Islam left out
    of mos, of die diSGOurse of ,he Enlighmenr. For many, this s«ms to bt" enough
    evidcncc- that Islam and the WC$t arc on a
    coUision course.
    But what about the affirmations of the
    Enlightenment? h placed an emphasis on
    the importance of the individual, the rule
    of law, and the present material world. And
    when looldng at WC$'tem world through
    the lens of what it affirms, Islam can in
    fact communicate with these values. They
    are not incompatible with Islamic doctrine.

    himself commented on the efficacy of Muhammad's political system in Arabia.

    international organizations have reported
    that ,he CIA hos subjected hundreds, i(
    not thous:a.nds, of persons to extraordinary
    rendition in countries known ,o engage
    in torture. Some of these individuals have
    "disappeared." Others are being detained
    in facilities operated by the CIA, known
    as "black sires." Numerous requests of thc
    Comminee for the Red Cross for access
    to such facilities have bttn denit"d. Some
    prisoners were subjected to "water board·
    ing," a technique in which intcrrog.ators
    strap the prisoner to a board with his feet
    above his head, cover his mouth and nose
    with cellophane and pour w.atcr over his
    face to create the sensation of drowning.
    This technique h:.as long been outlawed
    as torture. Yet the Bush Adminisu.uion's
    nominee for Attorney General refused
    lO acknowledge th.a, water boarding
    is torture.

    The Bush Admini.s1ration has been relying
    on thc so-called "state secrets privilege" to
    dismiss or delay these lawsuiu. On Oc·
    tober 10, 2007. the U.S. Supremc Court
    declined to hear the appeal fi led by Khalcd

    As has been the ca.SC" so many
    times this yc.ar, Colgate football
    was on the ropes needing to stage a
    comeback. This time hO\vever, the

    have put an end Colgate's playoff hopes. Yet again, however, 1hc
    Raiders delivered by rallying from

    Early in the second quarter,
    Colgate got on the board when sc·
    nior Mike Buck nailed a 30-y.ud
    field goal to make the score 7-3.
    On Lafayenc's next drive, Colglte

    1 l-yard completion and a huge

    penalty on the Raiders, the drive
    was kept alive. lhe error proved
    especially costly when Rob Curley exploded for a 49-yard 1ouchdown run lhat gave Lafuycnc a
    14-3 le.id. Things got even worse
    for Colgate when junior quarterback Alex Relph 1hrew a bad pass
    under prmurc and was intercepted by Marctl Quanerman, who
    returned 40 yards to the Colg,ue
    12. Af,er Stuffing the Leopard,;

    night and first-year goalie Lisa Plenderlcith took over in net. Despite oucshooting Mercyhurst nine-to-five in
    the second period , the only goal came
    when Mercyhurst forwa rd Viki Bcndus
    took a pass from linemace Stephanie
    Jones and slid it by Plenderleith. Thar
    score was Mercyhurst's last of t he night,
    as Plenderleirh finished the game with
    nine saves on ten shots. Colgate was able
    to avoid a shutout when first-year forward Hannah Milan received a cross-ice
    pass from junior forward Sa.m Hunt and
    beat senior goalie laura Hositr for the
    goal at 2: 11 of th e chird period. T hat
    would be rhc las, goal of rhc game, as

    at 5- 1 in f-avor of Mercyhurst.
    In la.st Saturday's g-ame, Mcrc)•hurst
    yet again jumped ouc to an early lead by
    scoring two first period goals - one each

    from forwards Hayley McMcckin and
    Valerie Chouinard. Mcrcyhurst took a
    2-0 lead into the first intermission, bur
    that lead would cut in haJf very quickly.
    Senior defender Mallory Johnston took
    a pass from junior forward Sa.m Hunt
    and put ir paSI goalie Laura Hosier ju~t
    thirty seconds into thr s«ond period.
    Mercyhurs1 answered right back with a
    goal by AgoSta at 1:47. No1 10 be ou1done, Hunt responded back 14 seconds
    later on :m unassisted goal to slash the
    lead back to one. Colgate later tied the
    score when first-year forward Jacquie
    Colborne scored a power•play goal,
    the first of her collegiate career, with
    an assiSt from Johnston. Agosta pulled
    Mcrcyhurst ahead again by netring an
    even strength goal at 5: 12 of the third
    period. but the quick-answer trend continued when senior forward Kara Lcene
    knocked a Colborne pass by Hosier just
    seven seconds later. After Merychurst
    called a timeout at 8:51, Agosta con·
    t inued to torment Colgate by completing her hat crick at J2:2 l . The Raiders
    called a t imeout with about 2:30 left in
    the game to pull Plenderleirh in hopes of
    answering back yet again with an extra

    Agona hit the twine with 28 second.s

    put a feather on top of her hat. Agosta
    now has a remarkable cen goals in jusc
    nine g2mes fo r Mercyhurst this season.
    Despite chc slow nan, Wiley still
    feels that the Raiders have the ability
    to exceed last se.ason's deep playoff run,
    pointing to the fuc t that last year's nart
    was similarly slow. Also, Wiley believes
    that rhe return of 19 letter winners
    means that the playc.rs will be able to
    fall back on last year's experience to help
    turn the season around.
    Colgate's next game, i,s ECACHL opBrown University at Starr Rink. The Raiders won both of their games against the

    The women's soccer ,eam recently played two cxcdlcnt home
    matches, defeating Lafayette, 40 and Lehigh, 1-0. The wins put
    fourth-place Colgacc in a great
    position to make ,he Patriot
    League Tournament entering
    this weekend's match at Navy.
    LaSt Friday's match stancd in
    ,he mo.st favorable way possible.
    In the flfrh minUlc, junior Josic
    Johnson put in a pcrfcct header
    after a nice cross by st'nior Fran·
    ny Jacuzzi. Colg-atc remained
    in conuol after the goal and it
    was only a maucr of rime before
    the next score came. In the 29th
    minute, sophomore Christine
    Walker put another goal in t he
    ncr. The momentum contin·
    ued when lacuzzi scored afur a
    Johnson pass a minute-and-half
    later. The first half ended with
    the Raiders loading 3-0.
    The second half started in
    the same fashion as Colg;ue
    kept pushing forward and was
    close to scoring QJl several occasions. Lafayette tool< ~i first
    shot of the game iti the 57th
    minute, but senior goalkeeper
    Brittany Pearsall took care of the

    attempt. The match became le55
    intense after that Pearsall save,
    but the Raiders scored one last
    goal in the 87th minute when
    first-year Callie Br.izil convened
    off a corner kick.
    Head Coach Kathy Brawn
    was more than satisfied with the
    team's performance.
    .. We had to win," Brawn said.
    ""We did a really nice job finishing the opportunities that we
    created."
    Last Sunday's match was a
    completely different story, as
    Colgate met a more highly mo•
    tivated and experienced 1cam
    in Lehigh on Senior Day. The
    match began with the Raiders in comrol. Colgate created
    many opponunilies for itself
    and ..outshot their opponents.
    lacuz.z.i was unstoppable on rhe
    left wing, while Johnson always
    kept at least three defenders with
    herself in the center. Lehigh
    goalie Julie Kafka Stopped a few
    dangerous shou, but she had no
    answer for Jacuzzi in the 24th
    minute. Johnson set up rhe goal
    by fa.king a shot just outside the
    box before passing to lacuui
    down the wing. The BRINE Parriot Le.ague Offensive Player of

    Lehigh had i1s shot in the 34,h
    minute when Melissa Montalvo
    went deep down Colgate's right
    side and shot the ball at the post
    behind senior goalkeeper Carly
    Sousa. The ball ricocheted co
    the legs of Lehigh's Li, Carlos,
    but sh<'.' didn't cake advanugc of
    the sirnation and the f-ans took a
    collective sigh of relief.
    The second halfwaJ: mainly a
    midfield battle, with each team
    taking five shoes. However, only
    one of the shots was on goal.
    Colgate had a late chance to
    double the score, but a couple of
    Lehigh defenders got in the way
    of the ball. The match would
    end with Colgate on top.
    .. The game had a different
    feeling (in the second half),"
    Brawn said. "The level of in~
    tensity was higher. I w.u pleased
    with the effort we pUI into it."

    imo the 6m half to give Lchig/1 a one-goal
    advantag,. Colgate was able to answer bock
    at 24: 14 when junior Lauren Carey scon!d

    for third place w;(h both Lafuynte and Holy
    Cross with 2-3 co1\fere.nce records.. The first
    tiebrcakcr is determined by the hcad-tohcad record between the three tea.ms, but
    thai didn', solve any problems because the

    higher-r.rnkcd conference opponenc,c;. None
    of ,he three teams defeated first-place American. but Lafayette defeated Lehigh earlier in
    the season and was awarded the third-seed.
