Rebel against tradition

It is common knowledge Duke’s academic curriculum has been to provide a strong liberal arts education firmly grounded in well-grounded academia. Duke administrators want a Duke degree to mean a Duke alumnus knows how to think clearly and write analytically. To this day Duke—with the exception of Pratt—lacks pre-professional schools due to its devotion to adhere to the principle of a liberal arts education. It is even in our school charter I believe—although I could be wrong about that, I could bother to look it up and read it myself, but journalistic integrity is so out these days and journalistic irresponsibility is so in.
