K-Ville in the snow.
It’s another cold, unforgiving morning in Durham, North Carolina. The rising sun’s golden beams are blocked by the canopy of the winter clouds, and the frigid weather has us all retreating to the comfort of our centrally heated homes.

This is part two of a three-part series about the raucous history of Duke students burning benches after major basketball victories. Here are part one and part three.
Dear David Sotolongo, Class of ‘82,
Pneumonia is asthma. A serious blood regulation condition is anxiety. A concussion is also anxiety. Chronic bronchitis is “just allergies.” Cancer tumor hemorrhage is gas pain.
Two years ago, I took my wife to the Clemson vs. Duke game in Cameron and was surprised to find that I was able to buy a ticket behind the benches in what used to be student-only seating. My first response was to be disgusted with my alma mater, assuming they had kicked students out of these seats so they could sell them. I then found out that the most likely truth was that the students simply weren’t filling these seats, even for conference home games. Last night I witnessed with embarrassment a “TV-side” student section that was empty from the baseline extended! For a home conference game vs. Miami (who has beat us five times in recent years) on ESPN. Unbelievable. A full, loud, and appropriately rowdy student section has been a key ingredient to success for the past forty years. Don’t take victory for granted. Y'all need to step up your game.

When I was younger, my mama told me I could be anything I wanted. I knew better than to rise above my station.
One year ago, hundreds of Duke students stood in a largely unregulated line before sunrise, many leaving Krzyzewskiville empty-handed in a morning marked by chaos.
At Wednesday’s meeting, the Duke Student Government Senate approved new policies for Krzyzewskiville in 2019-20.
So, you’re starting college. Congratulations!
A few weeks ago, The Chronicle let incoming first-years ask their pressing questions. Here are responses to a selection of sports-themed questions. Please keep in mind that although some questions are straightforward, not every question has one cut-and-dried answer. And don’t forget to tell us your questions at the bottom of this story.
Dear Duke community,
After reading two fellow columnists’ articles concerning affiliation at Duke, I was disheartened. One columnist detailed his disappointment with his social experiences as an independent, and one columnist justified the exclusive nature of Greek life with the assertion of the exclusivity of life in general. While exclusivity and hierarchy are realities, there is no reason that Duke’s social climate need look like the rest of the world. In fact, I believe we as a student body, especially independents, have the power to make Duke’s campus an inclusive and welcoming place, even building it to be a microcosm of what we want our world to look like.
The name of one student has been changed to protect their identity.
Do you ever wonder if members of the Board of Trustees read the Chronicle?
Tents in K-Ville were decorated this season in the weeks leading up to the game.
