During this year of celebration of Duke’s Centennial, believe it or not, I have become inspired by the Bylaws of Duke University.

This section on the "aims" of the university further notes "the diverse constituency that has developed since its founding." In explaining how its origins and current situation coalesce, the aims go on to say, "The University is committed to creating a rigorous scholarly community characterized by generous hospitality toward diverse religious and cultural traditions."
