I’m CJ Cruz. I’m Monday Monday
By Monday Monday and CJ Cruz | 3 days agoThis has been my favorite thing that I have done at Duke. I say without an ounce of exaggeration that it has been the honor of my college career to serve as your plague jester.

Sex and the mid-sized city
By Nathan Heffernan | April 15, 2021I have learned to let go of expectations for what my future will look like. It makes enjoying my present location more difficult. Often the real future surprises us and we end up making mistakes that disappoint our past selves. But just like TV shows, we must continue to chug along and write a new season or a tired sequel.

Update the community standard now
By Community Editorial Board | April 8, 2021By refusing to acknowledge how racism manifests into these incidents, the administration ultimately emboldens perpetrators to continue terrorizing communities of color on campus.

You aren’t detached from your words: A response to ‘Duke’s future’
By Dan Reznichenko | April 7, 2021This is the general pattern of the column: the author will throw a weak rhetorical punch before running away. In the end, all we come away with is knowledge of the things he dislikes—a boring read made confusing by its lack of purposeful moves.

It's okay to thrive
By Tatayana Richardson | April 5, 2021But what there is not is a multitude of sermons on what it means to be in happiness, in extended states of peace, or to be okay with thriving and not expecting that suffering will bring an end to every good moment you experience.

It is a privilege to put your political differences aside
By Robby Phillips | April 2, 2021What’s the point of playing a fixed game? Perhaps the answer to that question is that politics are not a game at all, but for many people—particularly those of us who are not cis white men—a matter of life or death.

Holding the stakes: archetypes of the Duke community
By Nicholas Chrapliwy | April 2, 2021Duke is composed of several categories of people who hold a stake in the university and care about what it does and what happens to it. Like an urban mural or a ceiling fresco, I want you to picture them all arranged in a close group how they’re normally not pictured: right next to each other, sitting around a table, talking in earnest about the place they all love.

What’s in the box?
By Jessica Luan | March 31, 2021I strongly prefer sweet to savory, so when I saw people walk out of the Brodhead Center carrying white cardboard boxes, my first instinct was that the academic deans were doing another Insomnia Cookies event, or that CaFe was selling cookies by the dozen.

Good enough for Fauci, good enough for Duke

Duke's future: Less fun, more woke, more careerist
By Reiss Becker | March 26, 2021If the “work hard, play hard” Duke is ending then what will take its place? In its place will be the independent’s conception of Duke, a school where students work hard, pause for online moral preening and then work harder.
