When Duke Marching Band Director Jeff Au raises his hands, he knows exactly what will happen next. In seconds, the floorboards will begin to shake, and a wall of sound will emanate from the lower bowl of Cameron Indoor Stadium.

I'd wager ten-and-a-half food points that you've picked up this fine publication after having been forced against your will—for the third time today—to reveal your most interesting personal fact to a PNF—or potential new friend. (How crazy that you also have 2 siblings!) Or maybe you're attempting to catch up on your daily dose of Duke University news while relieving your bladder and your mental stability in the one place you can escape the “OMG so good to see you” from the dudes and gals whose names have now become as fuzzy as your freshmen year rug/emergency bed.

(Don’t think I didn’t hear your “muffled” murmurs in the Perkins stacks during reading period.)

The coolness of the air that reminds you of a different country. It feels like a miracle when you start to wake up of your own accord, preempting the alarm as though interrupting a pesky coworker with exactly the words they were about to say. And perhaps the best part is saying “good morning” to anyone you’d like to—more valuable than any of the other salutations because its truthfulness is running out a short clock until noon.
Dear Dr. Monday,
“It’s all over but the crying.”

Sunday, March 2, 1986 marked the end of a remarkable season for the Duke men’s basketball team. The Blue Devils were 28-2, undefeated at home and ranked No. 2 in the country leading up to their game against No. 3 North Carolina. And Duke students had noticed—a number had been waiting in line for a week see the team one more time.
