DPD search additional property in ADPhi sexual assault investigation
ONE HUNDRED AND TENTH YEAR, ISSUE 108
HOLI MOLI
Emma Baccellieri News Editor The sexual assault investigation against Duke’s chapter of the Alpha Delta Phi fraternity has expanded—with the Durham Police Department seizing property from an additional residence. A set of new search warrants issued earlier this month allowed DPD to search the house next door to the site of the original investigation on West Chapel Hill Street. The second-degree rape case stems from a female freshman’s allegation that she was sexually assaulted by an ADPhi member following a fraternity party held the night of Jan. 8. The fraternity remains suspended by the University as the investigation continues. Immediately after the allegations were made in January, police officers searched Alpha Delta Phi the house that hosted the party. Earlier this month, following a March 23 interview with the female freshman, the police searched a second house on West Chapel Hill Street—which is also part of a group of houses referred to by students as “The Compound.” The alleged victim told police that she recalled several scenes that she could not place in the timeline of the evening on Jan. 8—walking up a grassy hill with a senior fraternity member, entering a house “next to the party house” and being in a bedroom with black bedding and a poster of the rapper Drake. As a result of their conversation with the alleged victim, police requested warrants for the second house—which they

A meal at the Washington Duke Inn and Golf Club is always a treat, but students with extra food points at the end of the Spring semester have the opportunity to use these points for charitable purposes. Because food points—which are equivalent to one dollar—do not roll over from the Spring semester to the following Fall, many students strive to use their extra points to avoid them going to waste. Although some students use these points to treat friends to meals at pricier venues such as the Washington Duke or the Nasher Café, others purchase food from on-campus stores to support canned food drives, which are organized by student groups. “We had the idea to partner with Duke stores to allow students to do something good with their food points,”

said junior Stephanie Engle, the chief executive officer of Campus Enterprises. Last year, Campus Enterprises—a student-run company with the goal of bettering students’ college experiences—conducted a food drive for the benefit of the Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina. They placed bins in stores on East, Central and West Campuses and received more than 1,000 cans bought by students, Engle said. The Food Bank of CENC told Engle that Campus Enterprises’ donation was one of the largest they had ever received. “When our group made the delivery, which required three cars, the workers all applauded,” Engle said. She added that Campus Enterprises’ efforts helped university stores clear their inventory in a productive way. This year, the group plans to begin their food drive during finals week when most students will need to use the rest of their food points. Rick Johnson, assistant vice president of student affairs for housing, dining and residential life, said that unused food points go to support Duke Dining and help
