Letter: Head line monitor explains policy for several games

As the semester is drawing to a close, the basketball season is just warming up. There are three very important issues I want to make students aware of that involve attending games in Cameron Indoor Stadium.

The first announcement is in regards to the Feb. 1 game of our No. 1 ranked women's team versus No. 4 UConn. Sell-out crowds are expected for this first nationally televised women's game in Cameron. In order to attend the game, you must pick up a free ticket this Wednesday, Thursday or Friday-Dec. 4, 5, and 6-at one of three locations: the Bryan Center Box Office from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.; the Cameron Box Office from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.; and the Marketplace (Thursday only) from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. This should be a fantastic game and is a great opportunity to come support the women's team.

The second announcement is about this Saturday's men's game versus Michigan at 3:30 p.m. in Cameron. Like all weekend games, this will be a walk-up game. Students may begin lining up whenever they wish. Once a significant number of people are lined up, line monitors will begin registering groups up to three hours prior to the game. All registered groups must have 25 percent of their group in line at all times. The secondary line will form three hours prior to the game at 12:30 p.m. and students in this line will be admitted to this game after the primary line. Admission into Cameron will begin 90 minutes prior to tip-off.

Finally, I want to make the tenting rules clear for this spring. The first tenting game is Feb. 5 vs. UNC. Students may have 12 people per tent and erect their tent whenever they wish; however, they will not be monitored until 10 tents have been established. Blue registration for the UNC game will be in Krzyzewskiville plaza on Jan. 24 or whenever 50 tents have been established, whichever comes first. Prior to white registration, all tents must have eight of 12 tent members in K-ville from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. Sunday through Thursday nights and 2 a.m. 10 a.m. on Friday and Saturday nights. Additionally at least one tent member must be present at all times, 24 hours per day.

White registration will occur 10 days prior to the basketball game on Jan. 26. Following white registration, at least one member of every tent must be in K-ville 24 hours per day. The location for white registration will be announced on the K-ville website at http://dsg.duke.edu/k-ville.php. All of the detailed information about tenting will also be on this website in the near future.

As always, if you have any questions, feel free to contact me at j.morgan@duke.edu. Thank you very much and enjoy the games. Let's go Duke!
