A love letter to East Campus

(05/30/24 11:33pm)

Duke’s East Campus is polarizing for students. On one hand, the second campus provides a safe haven for anxious first-years learning the quirks of Duke. On the other hand, critics bemoan East’s distance from West Campus, the constant need to use the C1 and Marketplace’s less-than-luxurious cuisine. Personally, I am firmly in the positive camp, an East Campus fan. As the remaining days of my freshmen year dwindled, I often found myself commiserating with my friends about how much we would miss living on East Campus next semester. Inspired by my love for East Campus, and in order to express my gratitude for it, I want to give a tribute to East Campus while also providing a bit of guidance for incoming first-years on how to make the most of their experience on East.
