Duke leadership needs to set goals and take concrete actions to make the resources of Duke University accessible to a much more economically diverse student body.
Is it selfish not to be selfless?
With two months left in the year, we have to act with conviction that it is not too late. Planting a seed today might get us at least a sprout by December.
As people of America, it is our responsibility to not allow our history of violence against and oppression of Black communities to be swept under the rug.
Widespread public response to recent events has erased the 75-year history of the Israeli occupation of Palestine. As such, in this article, we provide heavily-sourced and well-evidenced historical, political and humanitarian context that should preclude any understanding of the current turmoil.
You have worth and value as a human being therefore you should be honored, respected, trusted and included.
We don’t have the time to let Duke stall. We don’t have time to admire the problem in seminar series discussing Duke’s obligation to invest morally. We need climate action.
If you are feeling stressed out by this war — even if friends and family are safe — you are not alone. Your stress is legitimate.
Halloween is just fast fashion on steroids — and even that feels like an understatement.
Our inherent value is not contingent on some sense of human “capital.”
The fact that you have friends at all? My condolences.
As long as pro-Palestine groups on campuses continue to treat civilian massacres as an inevitable part of the fight for liberation, Israelis and most American Jews will continue to view its cause as a fundamental threat to the lives of all six million Jews living in Israel.
We also want to let our own learning communities — which include Muslims, Christians and Jews; Israelis and Palestinians; and families desperate to protect loved ones — know that we are raising our voices in defense of all civilians.
A well-designed liberal arts curriculum should be such that liberal arts students enjoying and exploring liberal arts naturally finish them, without even checking the ‘Degree Progress’ tab on Dukehub.
Things feel a bit of a blur now, but Angela was a good friend — someone who I just really, really liked and loved to be around. I thought we were going to be friends for a long time.
We write as alumni of Duke University to urge the leadership to set goals that lead to fair and equitable employment practices, sustainable environmental policy and responsible investment strategies.
Angela will be missed forever, and I will never stop loving her.
I'm so focused on connecting with the world that the value of understanding myself vanishes in the noise.
Duke has given me everything I could have dreamed of and more...I have nothing but gratitude. Except maybe, the smallest bit of regret.
