In Durham, At Duke

By Andrew Hibbard
As director of Duke Performances, Aaron Greenwald’s influence on University life is different. He’s not the ever-identifiable figure like the president, but his hand is visible every time you walk through the Bryan Center, past those Duke Performances posters, and he's changing the University arts culture one performance at a time.

Roadside Wisdom: Cynthia Brodhead

By Staff Reports
Cynthia Brodhead, née Degnan and wife of Richard, holds court in Hart House.

Here’s betting she’ll give the president (whom she met while enrolled in graduate school at Yale), a run for his money.

The Idea of the Chapel  (0)

Sam Schlinkert
I know next to nothing about our Chapel. I think I’ve only been inside it once—Maya Angelou comes every month, right?—and what’s more, I’m about as religious as a Marxist eating Chinese take-out on Christmas morning.

Twice a year, upperclassmen go through the spirited ritual of corporate recruiting, all in the hopes of scoring a sweet job offer. Usually, the job hunt starts with networking.

One ring of people to rule the world; one issue to find them, one school to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.
