By dawn's early light: Linking history, art and politics

(11/08/24 5:00am)

By this point in the school year, any student who has wanted to has likely made the brief trek to the Nasher Museum of Art. What they’ve seen is generally a mix of visiting exhibits and a small slice of the museum’s roughly 13,000-piece collection. In the Janine and J. Tomilson Hill Gallery is “By Dawn’s Early Light,” a yearlong exhibit that uses the Nasher’s vast collection to celebrate the 60th anniversaries of the Voting Rights Act of 1964 and Civil Rights Act of 1965.

'A sense of trust': The year-long story behind Duke women's soccer's rise to No. 1

(11/07/24 4:08am)

Mia Oliaro barely glanced before finding Nicky Chico with a quick pass. Chico tapped it right back to Oliaro, who, in one touch, threaded a perfectly timed through ball to Maggie Graham, sprinting up the right wing. Graham moved the ball into the final third, drawing defenders toward her as she made a sharp cut back and passed the ball to Farrah Walters in the box. Without hesitation, Walters slid a one-timed ball across the goal frame, which deflected off the Notre Dame goalkeeper right into the path of Ella Hase, who sprinted in from the far side, trusting the ball would meet her there. With a calm, single touch, Hase finished the play — a seamless end to a perfectly orchestrated sequence.

There’s a new aura in Cameron Indoor Stadium. Duke is quiet and focused. At the same time, it's raw, unpolished and like crude oil, this year’s group of young ballers is dangerous when given a spark. And, boy, do they have some firepower.

(11/07/24 5:00am)
