The Chronicle's Recess section has some fun Duke-specific costume ideas for Halloween. Whether you have a furry dog suit or a bunch of bricks laying around, we've got you covered.
On May 16, Duke students in the Story+ program began their two-day bootcamp to train in various humanities research methods. Unlike the typical image of a researcher in a lab, hovering over an experiment, the six-week Story+ program focuses on methods such as archival research, visual and audio content analysis and oral histories, along with an output that tells a story to connect to a wider audience.
I finally bought myself a drawing tablet this past week. I’ve started using a tablet at work — at the Duke Innovative Design Agency — but outside of that, I’ve been using a mouse or my trackpad to do digital art. That works pretty well for infographics, but it’s definitely difficult to replicate the same effects I would have on paper or canvas.
A new mixed-media exhibit at the Rubenstein hopes to use art and storytelling to raise awareness of solutions to major women's health problems.
In its tale of two monarchs, Josie Rourke’s “Mary, Queen of Scots” maintains major historical points but oversimplifies the narrative.
During most major holidays, my family either hosts or attends a dinner party. The host family spends the afternoon creating a wide and varied dinner spread. Guests arrive around 5 p.m., each bringing a dish or two with them. Once everyone arrives, we load up our plates and head to the tables. One table is usually reserved for the adults and one for the kids.
It is a nondescript pale yellow warehouse building on Dillard St., about a 15 minute walk off East Campus. There are a couple of cars parked outside, some stuffed animals stuck to an area of the wall, and a ramp leading up to the door. By the stuffed animals, there’s a small sign that says, “The Fruit.”
After returning home from my Duke Engage in Charlotte this summer, I spent a good chunk of my month before school thinking about school. Perhaps too much of that time. But this year is an important one. Sophomore year is major declaration year.
The new school year is here, but for Central Campus residents, this is a year of endings. It’s the last year that undergraduate students will live on Central Campus. Plans for the space have yet to be announced. While Central has been notorious for student complaints, many current and former residents of the apartments do think the campus still has its perks.
Duke’s alumni network is far-reaching, with hundreds of thousands of alumni in over 160 different countries. That network even extends to the fictional world, with characters in a variety of TV shows, as well as books, claiming Duke affiliations.
About three and a half weeks ago, I landed in Charlotte, N.C., the Queen City. At first, I was swept up by the novelty of a new place — this was my first time in Charlotte, and I wanted to see everything. But in seeing everything, I started to note troubling disparities that tie into the work I’m here to do this summer as part of DukeEngage.
On April 28, The Regulator Bookshop, an independent bookstore on Ninth Street, joined bookshops across the country in celebrating Independent Bookstore Day (IBD). This year, The Regulator brought in hedgehogs for customers to pet, raffled advanced reader copies — books that have not yet gone to print — and gift certificates and gave away copies of a cookbook, “In Helen’s Kitchen,” which was written by Helen Hudson Whiting, one of the founders of the store who passed away in 2000.
North Carolina has a rich history of film. Wilmington, N.C., has been called both “Hollywood East” and “Wilmywood” due to its appearance in a number of movies and TV shows. According to Southeast Discovery, more than 400 productions have filmed in Wilmington since 1983. But Duke itself also boasts features in several films and shows throughout the years.
Wednesday is LDOC, which means students will be celebrating with a day of activities culminating in an outdoor concert. But the LDOC festival is a tradition that’s only 21 years old, starting in 1997, according to the DUU website. In that time, LDOC has changed significantly, as have other concerts on campus.
