The Duke community suffered a tragic loss when rising junior Michael Doherty's body was found Saturday afternoon. We are still learning details of his passing and will try to relay those details to you in a timely fashion. The Chronicle will be accepting letters to the editor remembering Michael. Please submit letters to chronicleletters@duke.edu and include your name and affiliation with Duke. All selected letters remembering Michael will appear in The Chronicle within 24 hours of submission. This week The Chronicle will publish an obituary honoring Michael's memory. Our thoughts are with Michael's family and friends during this difficult time.
