Duke women’s basketball opened its regular season Nov. 6 against Richmond. Unsurprisingly, the Blue Devils cruised to a comfortable victory against the Spiders on the back of an outstanding performance by junior guard Reigan Richardson. As a surprise for the unassuming fan, however, one newcomer shined brightest with 22 points and a team-high 12 rebounds, all without fouling or even starting the contest.

A few years ago for Lent, I decided that I would give up hot showers. For those unfamiliar with the practice, Lent is a 40-day period where Christians give up something important to mirror the temptation Jesus faced from the devil. Who doesn’t love a long, hot shower? I certainly treasured the time to steam and relax in utter bliss. Mind you, Lent began at the end of swim season too, so I could’ve definitely used a hot shower after hours in a freezing pool in March. It wasn’t easy to turn on the cold jets of water and quickly wash my hair every day, but I truly felt good about my commitment by the time 40 days had passed.

“I’m very skeptical of books. I don’t want to say no book is ever worth reading, but I actually do believe something pretty close to that...I think, if you wrote a book, you f—ed up, and it should have been a six-paragraph blog post.” — Sam Bankman-Fried (skeptical of books).

I really love Olive Garden. It’s where I’ve celebrated my birthday for many years, where my parents and I stop on vacation for a nice meal, where my family dined the night before I left for college — the list goes on, but many important moments in my life have been commemorated in the company of free breadsticks. Sure, in recent years, I’ve gained more of an appreciation for trying local food and expanding my palate, but there’s just something so heartwarming about the predictability of a chain — especially one that showers you with freebies.

We, concerned Duke alumni who are Jewish, are responding to Duke Students Supporting Israel’s Dec. 7 guest column. We share their abhorrence toward the October Hamas attack on Israel and with antisemitism in general, but we respectfully wish to offer some other valid interpretations of certain circumstances. We hope our guest column can enhance this important conversation — both within the Jewish community and externally. Ongoing civil discourse regarding current Israel-Palestine events is crucial and has become increasingly fraught. We try here to identify areas of disagreement with the student organization’s statement, placing these disagreements within an inclusive historical and contemporary context.
