Letter: Lack of support destroys swimming program
(11/21/02 5:00am)
Athletic Council Chair Kathleen Smith is precisely what's wrong with Duke's athletics administration.

Duke's lame treatment of its swimming program has resulted in the loss of several dedicated and nationally ranked swimmers--myself included.
