Wake Forest mastered in one drive Saturday what Duke has been working on for a decade-moving in the wrong direction.
As drop/add ends and going to class almost becomes necessary, the school year is officially underway. So, now is as good a time as any for a little what's hot and what's not around campus: Hot:...
I didn't say it, though, because as much as I hated the deep racism in his comments, I knew what he meant. Stereotypes-in some circumstances-have at least some basis in fact.
In the market for a flat screen TV? A brand new Phillips or Panasonic will set you back $1,400 to $1,700.
Snap. Thwap. Thud. Oy. And The Anti-Train keeps rolling.
When The Chronicle hit campus bins the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, headlines about recent Oak Room renovations and hotel tax increases greeted Econ students as they left class.
I woke up the morning of Sept. 11, 2001 giddy, albeit groggy, in anticipation of my first day as an intern at Good Morning America in Times Square. At 5:08 a.m., I rolled out of bed and into the...
America never saw what really happened on Sept. 11. Most people never saw the severed limbs or the charred corpses. They never saw the dozens of people forced onto the edges of small office...
While sitting in my Marxism and Society class, an idea dawned on me. A fantastic, hilarious idea. I would get an internship on Wall Street! I had never done it before and knew that I would never do...
Nov. 27, 1999, the worst fears of every Duke student, administrator and parent were realized: then-junior Raheem Bath died after a week-long battle with aspiration pneumonia, which was brought on...
Confucius once said, in what was surely one of that great sage's most inspired moments, "Opinions are like assholes; everyone has one." Confucius, however, obviously never had the pleasure of...
Built before World War II, many dormitories on East Campus do not have air conditioning. This makes life rather uncomfortable for the unlucky ones-kids assigned to the sweltering buildings.
Now, I don't consider myself a jealous or competitive person, but when you spend your summer selling corn and tomatoes at a roadside produce stand, this is the absolute last thing you want to hear.
My journey to being a first-semester senior has been filled with all sorts of ups and downs. Three years at Duke have given me more than just an eating disorder, herpes and a plan to park my car...
Once a week, every week, a hundred pairs of feet stampede the spotless wooden floor. A hundred hands dip into bowls brimming with baked goodies, and from a hundred mouths spill crumbs and comfy...
Here, in Durham and in North Carolina, pizza is largely how I've described it in the first paragraph. It comes in a box marked with the logo of a major franchise, and it is a sad state of affairs,...
Some of you might remember me as the man that brought you The Train (U.S. Patent No. B3946006) during basketball season last year. Now, ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the 2006 Duke Football...
Now that our reputation is in the clumsy hands of the media, the dilemma is worse. A reasonable accounting of Duke as it truly is-a good, but like so many others, conflict-ridden school-will be...
In case you were unaware, which I'm assuming is roughly two-thirds of the student body, our football team lost to I-AA Richmond. Final score: 13-0.
