Got $25,000?

(01/08/04 5:00am)

Ah, the irony at Duke University. The cover story of the September-October 2003 issue of the Duke Magazine, "Discourse on Discrimination," offered a series of insightful interviews with undergraduates about affirmative action in the light of recent Supreme Court decisions. A few pages later, I noticed another plug for the Duke Annual Fund. But this plug was different. It listed all the major donors and their affiliations with the University.

Column: STD testing: Too costly for Duke?

(04/11/03 4:00am)

How many of us have free condoms in our dressers from the Healthy Devil Peer Education Program? Peer educators, in addition to passing out free condoms, educate the campus about issues of sexual health. The coordinator, Ray Rodriguez, gives an informative, humorous and rather famous presentation on safer sex and STD testing to classes, greek groups and other student organizations.

This past weekend, I was on a "first-year residential life" panel with other undergraduates in front of North and South Carolinia prospective students. The audience asked questions about FOCUS, East Campus living, move-in day, coed dorms and orientation. Those were pretty easy.

Column: Coming out to debate homosexuality

(09/26/02 4:00am)

Much of the campus discourse about sexual minority issues is meant to provoke. Such discourse is heating up again as this year's Coming Out Week sparks conversation and spurs new controversy about lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender issues. Certainly there is talk concerning gay stereotypes, funding for the LGBT groups, the "gay lifestyle" and gay politics. Unfortunately, most of this discussion calls forth an emotional response rather than an intellectual debate on issues of sexuality at Duke and in general.
