Commentary - R D You
Upon exploring the ever-popular college section of Barnes and Noble, I found myself, once again, browsing through those infamous college books. You remember those ones from high school that enthralled your attention? The "100 Top Best Ultimate Colleges in the History of Time" books that either filled you with a swirling sense of pride for Alma Mater or left you with a grand distaste for the author's ignorance. Instinctively, I checked out Duke. Awaiting the stereotypical quotes of "Harvard of the South" and "Best All-Around," I was surprised, if not utterly shocked, to discover that one particular author had found that Duke students, with all of our quirks,"Love Durham, North Carolina." Now this is the part of the movie where the music comes screeching to a halt, the lights dim, and the spotlight shines exclusively upon this confused Dukie. I mean, honestly? Do we love Durham?
