For the first time, Latinx organizations at Duke have all united to further the interests of the Latinx community. These “demands” serve as accountability for the many times Latinx students tirelessly advocated for a more equitable campus. They are hardly demands, they are a plea for the respect and acknowledgement of marginalized students.
Please also do everything you can to protect survivors. When you go to say their name, say their abuser’s instead. Make sure you aren’t ripping them apart more than they already have been.
It will be the highlight of your day to see the girls you sat with at Marketplace on campus. Ask them to lunch. Actually follow through on it.
Everything we can do to flatten the curve — knowing eventually we will all be infected — we should.
Duke is allowing high-risk activities but then barring until January 18 the main reason students are here on campus – which is to engage in the very low-risk activity of attending in-person class. How does this make sense?
Is the safety of those around you worth standing room at a game?

Due to the lack of a Native Studies Program at Duke University, both Native students and the entire student body are barred from fully learning the history of the land that they call home.
After an O-week for the ages, we are now staring at a sobering fall of more social distancing, heavy campus restrictions and likely much more virtual learning.
Duke University has taken little initiative to support Indigenous students.
Let’s spread joy and learning rather than infection and fear. Let’s be better than Sturgis.
I encourage you to contact your school's President and insist they join other school Presidents in putting pressure on Biden and his staff to evacuate academic support employees.
I was so excited for our relationship to evolve from mentor/mentee to friendship. I was so excited to be able to catch up with you in another city many years down the road. I was so excited to see your Facebook updates of a wedding, of kids, of a family.
