We are heartbroken at the murder of University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill student body president Eve Carson. A "transplant" to North Carolina, I am immensely proud to hold degrees from both Duke University and UNC. I feel privileged to be associated with institutions that routinely nurture people of Eve's talent, goodness and potential. Although much of the psychic energy of our communities this week has been focused on the rivalry of our two basketball teams, I propose that the Duke student body make a gesture of solidarity and compassion with UNC on Saturday night by offering polite and respectful applause when each member of the Carolina team is introduced.
