Andrew Kragie Student Speaker
Rachel Chason University Editor Senior Andrew Kragie has been selected as the student speaker for this year’s commencement ceremony Sunday. Kragie—who is double majoring in political science and public policy with a certificate in Latin American Studies— will focus his speech on the mindset that he thinks sets Duke students apart, a mixture of pragmatism and idealism he calls “Blue Devil double vision.” “Duke students don’t just see the world as it is, they see the world as it could be,” he said. A committee of faculty, students, administrators and staff selected Kragie as the student speaker from a pool of approximately 30 candidates who submitted first drafts of their speeches. During the first round of selection every year, committee members rank their favorite speeches without knowing who authored them, explained Sue Wasiolek, assistant vice president for student affairs and dean of students. The committee then chooses between four and six finalists, who are asked to deliver their speeches in person. “The first criteria is to look at content to see if someone has presented a speech that we feel is appropriate for Duke’s commencement, and the second

part of it is to look at the delivery,” Wasiolek said. Wasiolek said that competition this year was especially strong, noting that the committee’s choice was not an easy one. “At the end of the day, the committee felt that the content of Andrew’s speech would have the broadest appeal,” she said. “His delivery was also excellent—he
has such great energy and enthusiasm, and a really wonderful presence about him.” Kragie’s speech will be one of the focal points of the commencement ceremony, which will feature an address from Paul Farmer, Trinity ‘82, and is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. May 10 at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park.
“I’m over the moon to have been given this opportunity,” Kragie said. “Duke is unique—it doesn’t just give us the knowledge to execute our plans, but it also allows us to develop moral visions to accompany those plans.” A combination of learning and service has characterized several of the highlights of Kragie’s Duke experience—including his service trips to Costa Rica, independent DukeEngage project in Brazil and the house course he led examining the purpose of mission trips. Kragie has also written for The Chronicle and Duke Political Review, worked with the American Grand Strategy program and enjoyed his experience as a member of the selective living group Cooper House. He explained that, like many Duke students, he has struggled to “find the right balance of curricular and extracurricular activities”—noting that the line is not an easy one to find. Kragie encouraged incoming freshmen to slow down enough to think about their experiences—whether by having a laid-back summer, taking a semester off or going away for the weekend. “I’ve learned the importance of taking the time to reflect,” Kragie said. “It’s hard to process what is happening when you’re right in the middle of it.” Next year, Kragie plans to pursue a career in journalism in Houston.

Paul Farmer
Commencement Speaker Emma Baccellieri News Editor Humanitarian Dr. Paul Farmer will speak at this year’s commencement ceremony. Farmer, Trinity ‘82, is best known for his work providing health care to rural areas and developing nations, particularly in Haiti. The founder of international nonprofit organization Partners in Health, he currently is a professor at Harvard University, where he received his medical degree and Ph.D. He was appointed to Duke’s Board of Trustees in 2009. In a meeting with student leaders Jan. 15, President Richard Brodhead detailed some of his personal criteria for a commencement speaker—noting his desire to choose an individual with an existing connection to Duke who will give a speech well-suited to the specific moment, rather than something that can be recycled for any year’s graduation. Farmer, Brodhead said, will not disappoint. He praised Farmer’s intellect and drive, in addition to his warmth and humor. “He’s the least pretentious person you’ll ever meet,” Brodhead said of Farmer. As an undergraduate, Farmer was a B.N. Duke scholar. After graduating summa cum laude with a bachelor’s degree in medical anthropology, Farmer co-founded Partners in Health in 1987 and began his work in Haiti. His efforts have earned him numerous awards and honors, including being named the United Nations Secretary-General’s Special Adviser for Community-Based Medicine in 2012 and gaining membership to the Institute
of Medicine and American Academy of Arts and Sciences. “At graduation, we want students to feel that their education has prepared them to lead significant lives in service to their world,” Brodhead said in a Duke News release announcing Farmer as the commencement speaker. “It’s hard to think of a person who could give this message in a more inspiring way than Paul Farmer.” In addition to being known for his work in Haiti and Rwanda, Farmer is also noted for his service in assisting those affected by the 2014 Ebola outbreak in West Africa. Farmer has long suggested that the enormous costs associated with improving health care in developing nations are worth it compared to the loss of human lives caused by deadly endemic diseases. He noted in an article in the Washington Post Oct. 6, 2014, that the Ebola outbreak was not a natural disaster, but rather “the terrorism of poverty.” “In Haiti, Rwanda and most recently in the regions afflicted with Ebola, Paul has spent his life bringing the benefits of advanced medicine to places without the economic resources many of us take for granted,” Brodhead said in the release. “He is a great speaker, he’ll have a powerful message and he loves Duke.” This year’s commencement ceremony will begin at 9 a.m. Sunday, May 10, at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park because of the ongoing renovations to Duke’s Wallace Wade Stadium.
Special to The Chronicle Commencement speaker Paul Farmer has spent time in Haiti, Rwanda and West Africa trying to bring health care to the poorest parts of the world.

2015 Commencement moving to DBAP Grace Wang Health and Science Editor
would officially be held off campus was met with frustration from some seniors. “I always thought that my parents would see me graduate in Wallace Wade, and at the very least on Duke’s campus,” senior Barbara Blachut said. “Renovations have forced us to give up a good part of the Duke that we knew and loved freshman year, and it’s unfortunate that it is also going to affect our last day as Duke students.” Wallace Wade has been the location for commencement since 1984, with a variety of other campus spots housing the ceremony in the years prior—including Page Auditorium, the Main Quadrangle and East Campus. “We worked hard to find a location that would provide our graduates with a memorable experience and we think we have done that,” Jesús Hidalgo | Chronicle File Photo Terry Chambliss, director of Duke’s Office of The Durham Bulls Athletic Park will be the first venue other than Wallace Wade Stadium to Special Events and University Ceremonies, said in host Duke’s commencement in more than 30 years. the release. “The Bulls stadium will comfortably accommodate our usual number of attendees with plenty of parking and good accessibility.” The renovations to Wallace Wade include a new tower that will replace the Finch-Yeager Building on the west side of the stadium, a new LED video board and speaker system to be implemented in the south end zone and plans for new North and West gates that will feature enhanced concourses. “Attending games at Wallace Wade, including storming the field against [the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill] and Miami, has been integral to my Duke experience,” senior Daniel Kort said. “I left [my last UNC game] fully expecting to hear ‘Dear Old Duke’ echo through the stadium just one more time at commencement, but the unfortunate reality is that our Wallace Wade days are over.”
Renovations to Wallace Wade Stadium mean that this year’s commencement ceremony will get some local flavor—it will take place at Durham Bulls Athletic Park. The ceremony is typically held at Wallace Wade—where Duke plays its home football games—but the stadium closed for construction in December and will remain out of use until August 2015. As a result, this year’s commencement will be relocated to the Durham Bulls’ park downtown. The ceremony is scheduled for the morning of May 10, 2015. “We’re grateful to [Bulls owner] Jim Goodmon and his team for working with Duke to make it possible to hold commencement at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park,” University Secretary Richard Riddell—whose office is in charge of commencement planning—said in a Duke News release. “It will be a unique commencement, introducing many parents and friends to a revitalized downtown Durham.” Hosting the ceremony off campus means that the timing and location of many of the diploma ceremonies that traditionally follow the main commencement will have to be changed, Riddell wrote in an email to graduating seniors. The park, colloquially known as DBAP, seats 10,000. The Bulls—the triple-A minor league affiliate of the Tampa Bay Rays—will be on the road for Duke’s commencement weekend, allowing the team and the University to reach an agreement regarding the stadium. For many students, however, the announcement was less than satisfying. Although Elysia Su | Chronicle File Photo the renovations to Wallace Wade have been Editor’s note: This article originally ran in the Nov. 2014 graduates enjoy last year’s commencement at Wallace Wade Stadium, which is currently scheduled for years, the news that graduation 25, 2014 issue of The Chronicle. being renovated to provide a more fan-friendly atmosphere.

Freshman Year 2011 - 12
Staff Reports The Chronicle Freshman year was characterized by a series of policy changes on and off campus that drove a wave of student activism. Administrators announced in October that they would grant residential space on Central Campus to all nine Panhellenic sororities as part of the new housing model, marking the first time Duke assigned houses for individual chapters. Following months of discussion, the University officially committed in April to providing a gender-neutral housing option on West Campus for Fall 2013 . This housing option followed the adoption of gender-neutral housing on select Central Campus areas the previous Fall. In September, senior Matthew Grape was killed in a car accident near the intersection of Academy Road and Duke University Road. Grape was remembered for his compassion and unwavering loyalty to his family and friends. Members of the Black Student Association protested in January after an unpublished study suggested that black students maintained similar GPAs to white students because they are more likely to switch to easier majors. Later that month, BSA called on administrators to fully address the concerns of the black community—including the relocation of the Mary Lou Williams Center for Black Culture, improving the social climate for black students on campus and increasing the diversity among faculty and administrators. With its continuing focus on research, the University expanded its medical care offerings by opening the Duke Cancer Center in
February. The $230-million facility emphasizes communication across multiple disciplines and increased support services in a space that can accommodate roughly twice as many patients. In the months leading up to the May 8 primary, Duke, often labeled as politically apathetic, became a major source of opposition to Amendment One—which aimed to define marriage as being between one man and one woman in the North Carolina constitution. The University reiterated its support for the LGBTQ community, and Duke Together Against Constitutional Discrimination hosted Chronicle File Photo rallies on campus. Early voting in the West Approximately 20 students from the Black Student Alliance marched from the Bryan Center to Union Building—which lasted 17 days—drew the Allen Building to present concerns of black students in January, 2012. thousands of ballots. Despite widespread opposition to the amendment at Duke, North Carolinians voted overwhelmingly in favor of the measure, making the state the 31st to ban gay marriage with a constitutional amendment. The University also worked to increase its global presence. For Duke Kunshan University, administrators approved a Master of Management Studies degree program offered by the Fuqua School of Business. Nonetheless, both construction and delays receiving Chinese Ministry of Education approval postponed the opening of DKU to Fall 2014. Administrators and faculty also approved a new MMS degree program to be offered in the United Arab Emirates, similar to an existing Durham-based program. That program was later suspended due to difficulties securing local partners for Chronicle File Photo Chronicle File Photo scholarships.

Sophomore Year ‘12 - ‘13
Staff Reports The Chronicle Sophomore year featured a number of large-scale campus policy changes and historic athletic feats. After months of student protests, the University eliminated the one-year statute of limitations on student sexual misconduct. The revised policy states that the University disciplinary process can respond to reports filed against a student until that individual graduates. The change
was proposed by a student task force. Dr. Robert Lefkowitz, James B. Duke professor of medicine and professor of biochemistry and immunology, became the first standing faculty member to receive a Nobel Prize in October. The Royal Swedish Academy of Science awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry to Lefkowitz and his colleague, Dr. Brian Kobilka—a former postdoctoral fellow at Duke who worked under Lefkowitz— for studies of G protein-coupled receptors. The University launched Duke Forward— its second capital campaign and the largest in its history—with a goal of raising $3.25 billion
by June 2017. The campaign has raised $2.5 billion so far. In November, President Barack Obama won a second term with 303 electoral votes, which exceeded the 270 necessary to clinch a victory. The Chronicle, in partnership with the Duke Initiative on Survey Methodology, conducted an IRB-approved poll of 3,200 undergraduates via email from Oct. 30 to Nov. 2, which showed that, of the students who responded, the majority supported Obama for president. The poll yielded 1,155 responses, and 65.6 percent of respondents said they would vote for Obama.

Junior Year ‘13 - ‘14
Staff Reports The Chronicle Junior year saw the University in flux both physically—as Duke pushed forward with renovations—and administratively, with several key administrators stepping down. The start of the school year saw the debut of three structures—the brandnew Penn Pavilion and completely refurbished versions of Baldwin Auditorium and Gross Hall. Serving as a dining hall for two years while West Union is closed for renovations, Penn Pavilion will ultimately function as a space for special events. The beginning of the renovations to West Union were felt by students, particularly the demolition of part of the Bryan Center Plaza and the closing of several popular eateries. Several food trucks were added to campus to help bolster the dining culture. Renovations also began on the Rubenstein Library, and work continued on Environment Hall, which opened in Spring 2014. It was the final year for two of Duke’s top administrators—Provost Peter Lange and Victor Dzau, President and CEO of Duke University Health System. The longest serving provost in the University’s history with 15 years in the position, Lange was replaced by Sally Kornbluth, James B. Duke Professor of Pharmacology and Cancer Biology. Dzau became president of the Institute of Medicine shortly after leaving Duke. Student coalition DukeOpen made a splash in the Fall with a campaign to increase the University’s investment transparency. Visible protest techniques—including a banner in front of the Allen Building and interrupting a Board of Trustees meeting— garnered attention from students and administrators alike. Administrators agreed to some, though not all, of the
coalition’s aims, including expanding the University’s investment advisory group and adding a social choice fund. The University continued to pursue its global ambitions, with Duke Kunshan University receiving approval from the Chinese government in September. Before opening in Fall 2014, DKU spent the 2013-14 school year beginning to recruit students from Duke and elsewhere. Winter 2014 proved to be snowier than normal—”Snowmaggedon” led to four days of canceled classes in January and February, the most that the University has had in at least 10 years. The first Duke-UNC men’s basketball game of the season also fell victim to the snow and was rescheduled shortly before tip-off. The senior class lost one of its own when Becky DeNardis was killed in a car accident during Spring Break on a trip with Duke’s Outdoor Adventures Program. DeNardis was remembered by friends and family for her warmth and intelligence. The football team built on its success from the year before, putting together its first winning season and national ranking since 1994. The Blue Devils won the Coastal Division for the first time before losing to eventual national champion Florida State in the ACC title game. For the second consecutive year, the team played in a bowl game and built a big first-half lead before Johnny Manziel and Texas A&M clawed back and pulled out a 52-48 win in the Chick-fil-A Bowl on New Year’s Eve. After a loss to Notre Dame in January, the men’s basketball team fell out of the top 10 in the AP Poll for the first time since 2007. Led by stars Jabari Parker and Rodney Hood, Duke entered the NCAA tournament with Final Four aspirations but did not make it out of the Round of 64 for the second time in three years, falling to 14th-seeded Mercer in Raleigh.

Senior Year ‘14 - ‘15
Staff Reports The Chronicle Senior year saw Duke continue to grow and evolve both physically and intellectually, as construction ramped up and controversy provoked thoughtful discussion. The number of cranes blotting the skyline increased as the University witnessed the end of some major projects and the beginning of others. Just as The Edge in Bostock Library opened this past January, the entrance to the Bryan Center shut down and Wallace Wade Stadium began renovations, relocating graduation to the Durham Bulls’ Athletic Park. Duke also announced plans to renovate Marketplace for the first time since 1995, begin a historic expansion of Cameron Indoor Stadium and close the Chapel in May 2015 for a year of renovations. Departing this year along with the Class 2015 are administrators who have helped shape the seniors’ Duke experiences. Laurie Patton, dean of Trinity College of Arts and Sciences, announced her decision to become the 17th president of Middlebury College in Vermont. Duke Kunshan University also saw a significant change in leadership—with Nora Bynum, vice provost for DKU, announcing her departure to work at Chicago’s Field Museum in January and Mary Brown Bullock, executive vice
chancellor since 2012, announcing her retirement in February. Duke Forward—the fundraising campaign with the goal of raising $3.25 billion by June 30, 2017—yielded promising results in 2014-15, with the University having received $340.1 million in cash gifts and $348.5 million in new commitments as of April 1. Overall, the University has raised $2.5 billion towards its goal. This senior class has witnessed a growing trend—with Keizra Mecklai’s election as the new DSG president marking Duke’s fourth consecutive female student body president. Although seniors will not be around for her leadership, many have widely applauded Duke’s efforts in championing female leadership. Senior year also saw a number of racial and religiously-based controversies— including Duke’s abrupt reversal of its decision to have the weekly Muslim callto-prayer led from the Chapel bell tower, the tragic murder of three Muslim UNC students in Chapel Hill and the hanging of a noose near the Bryan Center. The Duke community came together following these incidents—with administrators leading speeches, faculty hosting forums and Duke Student Government and the Black Student Alliance collaborating to create the Social Justice Fellowship. Duke research has also been featured See Senior on Page 26

Coach K 1K: Duke beats St. John’s for Krzyzewski’s 1,000th win game as an opportunity to win Duke’s 17th game of the season. Having achieved that goal, the Blue Devils allowed themselves Sports Managing Editor to soak in the true meaning of the victory. “It’s for all the [former] players. We were doing it for the NEW YORK—First, there was No. 903. Sunday afternoon, program, doing it for Coach, and doing it for all the guys one of basketball’s iconic figures reached another milestone at before us,” Cook said. “We happened to be here, and we’re all humbled and blessed to be a part of history.” the sport’s most iconic venue. “It’s almost like you can’t believe that it all happened like One thousand. A 13-1 second-half run for the Blue Devils brought No. 5 Duke this, that he would get his 1,000th win here in The Garden. It’s back from a double-digit hole to claim a 77-68 victory against St. John’s amazing how the world works,” added Jefferson. “It’s a historic Sunday at Madison Square Garden, earning legendary head coach Mike moment—for us to just be in it is great.” With the ticker recalibrated to accommodate four digits, Krzyzewski the 1,000th victory of his 40-year career in comeback fashion.

In a game that saw both teams squander a double-digit lead, the Blue Devils buckled down in the closing seven minutes to seize control after the Red Storm dominated the middle third of the game. Krzyzewski has coached 1,308 games in his career, but the one that got him his milestone victory had even him shaking his head. “I’m not sure I’ve ever been part of a game like that, that’s kind of nuts,” said Krzyzewski, the first Division I men’s basketball coach to reach the marker. “To have one that’s different, that’s what makes the game so good. To do it here [at Madison Square Garden]—just to win here, but to do it here for 1,000, you’ve got to be a lucky guy.... This is a magical place.” Returning to the arena where he earned his 903rd victory to pass mentor Bob Knight for most in Division I men’s basketball history, Alona E. Evans Prize in International Law Krzyzewski expected a battle from the Red Storm (13-6). But in the early going, it looked as though Duke (17-2) might coast to the Emma Campbell-Mohn Anand Raghuraman historic milestone, as a monstrous Jahlil Okafor dunk in transition Andrew Kragie Jason Singh gave the Blue Devils a 21-10 edge with 12:25 remaining. It wouldn’t be quite so easy. Trailing by 11, head coach Steve Theodore Leonhardt Lavin called a timeout to stop the bleeding, and the Red Storm emerged from the bench a new team. Sir’Dominic Pointer and Rysheed Jordan led the charge for St. John’s, combining for 29 first-half points as the Red Storm cut the lead to 23-19, eventually Elizabeth G. Verville Award charging ahead 33-32 on a 3-point play by Jordan. During the run, Duke scored seven points in seven minutes.

American Government and Constitutional Law At 67 years old, Krzyzewski has spent more than half his life manning the Duke sideline, and was in peak form Sunday, William Giles imploring his team to defend and at one point asking for one of his team’s trademark floor slaps.

As long as I’m doing it, I’m going to bring American National, State, and Local Governments energy,” Krzyzewski said. “It was beautiful to see them fight today.” The Red Storm didn’t let up out of the locker room, as Alex Gersovitz senior Phil Greene IV scored four straight points for St. John’s early in the second half. The Red Storm guard parted a sea of Robert S. Rankin American Government Award for Blue Devil defenders to hit back-to-back floaters in the lane to push the lead to 51-43 and give the St. John’s faithful more to Leadership & Academic Achievement cheer about. The run coincided with the departure of Amile Jefferson, forced to the sideline with three personal fouls. Ray Li With Jefferson and sixth man Rasheed Sulaimon on the bench Elizabeth Schaack in foul trouble, the Blue Devils made their push. Cook cut the lead to seven before Jones drove baseline to draw the hoop and Jacob Zionce the harm. The freshman floor general converted the ensuing free throw to trim the deficit to 61-57 with 6:51 to play. Jones finished Ole R. Holsti Award in with a game-high 22 points, tying a career-high. American Foreign Policy and International Relations “We were losing and we knew we had to come together and slowly start to chip away,” Jones said. “We just wanted to do it for Coach. We hadn’t been playing as well as we would’ve liked to. It was Julia Janco just the time of the game where we had to get it going.” Fifteen seconds later, Okafor corralled an errant Jones 3-pointer Graduation with Distinction and finished a 3-point play of his own, putting the momentum back in Duke’s corner. When Cook knocked down his fourth triple to put Safa Al-Saeedi Gianandrea Gaetani Julia Janco his team ahead 63-62—his team’s first lead since the 4:37 mark of Amanda Coulson-Drasner William Giles Alexander Klassen the first half—the sizable Blue Devil contingent threatened to tear the roof off The World’s Most Famous Arena. Sophia Durand Lauren Hansson Sophia Staal On the other end, the Blue Devils got a big boost from reserves Maxime Fischer-Zernin Daryn Howland Jacob Zionce Marshall Plumlee and Matt Jones. The big front line of Okafor and Plumlee gave up some quickness to Pointer and the other St. John’s forwards, but held its own down low, grabbing rebounds and forcing the Red Storm guards to pull up for jumpers rather than finish drives at the rim. St. John’s missed 11 of its last 14 shots in the game’s final 9:52. DEPARTMENT of ”[Plumlee] was amazing.

University launches second capital campaign: Duke Forward Nicole Kyle The Chronicle The University’s second capital campaign in history launched this weekend in an enthusiastic affirmation of Duke’s strategic priorities as an innovative and progressive institution. Duke Forward: Partnering for the Future became official with the Board of Trustees’ approval and an announcement to donors Saturday afternoon. The campaign’s goal is set at $3.25 billion, and about $1.325 billion was raised in the campaign’s silent phase, which began in July 2010. The campaign will conclude in June 2017 and will raise funds for all of the University’s schools, Duke Medicine, athletics, facilities and financial aid, among other initiatives.
Nearly one-third of the campaign dollars will be injected directly into the University’s endowment, which was valued at $5.6 billion at the close of fiscal year 201112. Growing the size of the University’s endowment is one of the primary motivations in this capital campaign, as it is essential to Duke’s growth as a university that already has high academic ratings relative to its endowment size, said Board of Trustees Chair Richard Wagoner, Trinity ’75. “If we want to continue to move aggressively forward, a campaign like this... it is really a necessity,” Wagoner said. “We do this because we want to, but we also recognize that the University needs additional resources to support these aggressive visions.” About 44 percent of campaign funds raised will go toward programmatic initiatives, 17 percent to facilities and seven percent to the Duke Annual Fund. The campaign is framed by three prevailing principles:

enriching student education, furthering Duke’s global presence and maintaining the University’s momentum. About 40 percent of the campaign goal—or about $1.3 billion—will go toward the undergraduate experience overall. The University hopes to raise $435 million for Trinity College of Arts and Sciences, $161.5 million for the Pratt School of Engineering, $250 million for Duke athletics and $1.2 billion for Duke Medicine. The campaign’s goal for financial aid is well above $200 million, said President Richard Brodhead at a press conference Saturday, noting that the University hopes to surpass the $308 million raised in the Duke Financial Aid Initiative, which ended in 2008. Expanding financial aid is necessary for Duke to maintain its commitment to need-blind admissions for domestic students. “With the situation in the economy, the amount of resources that the University is devoting to supporting financial aid is growing at a much faster rate than tuition or revenues,” Wagoner added. “We really do need in this campaign to make a significant step forward in the funding of endowment for financial aid... and that is not always the easiest kind of money to raise.” The campaign is co-chaired by Trustees Anne Bass, Bruce Karsh, Trinity ’77 and David Rubenstein, Trinity ’70 and Board vice chair. ‘Why Duke? Why now?’ With its emphasis on collaboration and multidisciplinary education and experience, Duke Forward is a more holistic campaign than its predecessor, the Campaign for Duke, which concluded in 2003 and raised $2.36 billion. The Campaign for Duke raised money in specific “buckets,” but Duke Forward aims to raise money in larger collaborative pools that feed into the University’s strategic plan, Brodhead said. There is also less of an emphasis on facilities in Duke Forward. “The last campaign was about assuring that Duke would enter the top rank of universities,” Brodhead said. “We don’t think that’s the goal this time—the goal this time is to use Duke’s special attributes to help it define new models of education.” See Forward on Page 22

continued from page 20 Brodhead noted a survey of school deans in summer 2009 that asked deans to name what would most advance their respective schools. Each response involved collaboration across schools. The uniqueness of Duke’s collaborative education was a theme revisited throughout the weekend’s launch events. Saturday’s announcement and lunch, attended by about 700 distinguished donors, was followed by a private Duke Forward launch gala in Cameron Indoor Stadium in the evening. Donors, Trustees, University leaders, faculty and students were in attendance for the event. Brodhead delivered the gala’s opening address, recalling Duke’s history and calling upon its most supportive donors. “Why Duke, why now?” Brodhead said. “Because our distinctive culture... makes Duke uniquely suited to meet some of the future’s most critical needs, needs for critical forms of knowledge and also needs for people who know how to be creative problem solvers in a complicated and interdependent world.” Bass, Karsh and Rubenstein delivered remarks, as did Duke men’s basketball head coach Mike Krzyzewski.

DKU welcomes students
Moving forward, Rubenstein said the campaign steering committee will continue to brainstorm and hold events around the country to stir up conversation and ideas for the campaign. Now that the schools’ and departments’ goals have been set, the committee can begin to approach particular groups of alumni with corresponding interests. “Throughout the planning process, the Trustees were interested in making certain that we knew what we were going to do with the money we were going to raise,” he said. Rubenstein said the main duties of the co-chairs are to contribute gifts and to energize others who may be interested in supporting Duke. The duration of the campaign means Duke will have to maintain its fundraising momentum. “Five years is a long time to run for, so we’re kind of moving from a sprint period Danielle Muoio | Chronicle File Photo to more of a mile run period where we need to keep a steady pace going,” Wagoner said. President Richard Brodhead and administrators from Wuhan University and Duke Kunshan University celebrate the grand opening of Duke’s campus in China. Duke is not the only top university to launch a capital campaign in a time of relative economic uncertainty. Harvard University will launch a $6 billion capital campaign in 2013. Yale University concluded a campaign in June 2011 that raised $4 billion. University leaders are confident in Duke’s donor base, despite the economic climate. “There is just no overstating the extent to which people who are associated with this University believe in it,” Brodhead said. “The gifts we have brought in so far have been brought in in not very positive economic times, but I think people have been extraordinarily generous with us.”
‘A long time to run’ Although there was already support for the campaign, the weekend’s events were successful in energizing the University’s donors and community, Rubenstein said. “I’ve been involved with a lot of capital campaigns in my life, and I think that this one got off to a stronger start Editor’s note: This article originally ran in the Chronicle File Photo than any other I’ve seen,” Rubenstein Oct. 1, 2012 issue of The Chronicle.

2015 Phi Beta Kappa Initiates
Phi Beta Kappa, the nation’s oldest and largest academic honor society, was founded on December 5, 1776 by five students at the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia. Since then, it has evolved to become the nation’s leading advocate for arts and sciences at the undergraduate level. Phi Beta Kappa elects over 15,000 new members a year from 276 prestigious chapters across the United States. The Society’s distinctive emblem, a gold key with the letters Phi Beta Kappa as the Greek initials of the motto of the society, “Love of learning is the guide of life,” is widely recognized as a symbol of academic achievement. The Duke Chapter, Beta of North Carolina, was formed in 1920 at Trinity College.

The Cameron Crazies witnessed a year of mixed results in basketball. Freshman Austin Rivers delivered a buzzer-beater to complete a memorable comeback win at North Carolina in February, but the men’s basketball team lost to the Tar Heels with the ACC regular season title on the line in March and was eliminated by Florida State in the ACC tournament. Duke, a No. 2 seed in the NCAA tournament, suffered an upset loss at the hands of No.15 Lehigh seed in the Round of 64. Earlier in the season, head coach Mike Krzyzewski passed his mentor Bob Knight to become the winningest coach in NCAA Division I men’s basketball history, reaching 903 career wins after defeating Michigan State at Madison Square Garden. On the women’s side, the Blue Devils lost their title as reigning ACC tournament champions after they were upset by N.C. State in the conference tournament quarterfinals. Duke then fell to Stanford in the Elite Eight in the NCAA tournament.

stereotypes. Students posted fliers protesting the party, held a rally at the West Campus bus stop and asked that a new task force be created to deal with group bias incidents like the party. Kappa Sigma was suspended by its national organization, and the Coalition for an Inclusive Duke and the brothers of Kappa Sigma jointly released a statement pledging to work together to change a “problematic environment” at Duke. The University celebrated its 50th anniversary of integration throughout the spring semester. Events included visits from the first class of black undergraduates and a keynote sudoku_479B address given by Sen. Mo Cowan, D-Mass. and Trinity ’91.
The Duke Student Government Senate unanimously passed legislation calling for the expansion of the current health care plan to better fit the medical needs of the transgender community. After DSG backed student health insurance coverage for sex reassignment surgery, administrators signed a new contract with Duke’s health insurance provider, Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Carolina, that included up to $50,000 to cover the procedure. The Arts and Sciences Council voted down a motion to adopt for-credit online courses. The vote was hotly contested, with 14 council members voting to approve for-credit online courses and 16 voting against it, and two abstentions. If the motion had passed, Duke would have entered into online education company 2U’s Semester Online consortium, a three-year pilot program. Two Duke athletes—senior Abby Johnston and junior Nick McCrory—won silver and bronze medals in the 2012 London Olympics, respectively. Johnston received a silver medal in synchronized 3-meter springboard diving, and McCrory took home the bronze in synchronized 10-meter platform diving. The athletic triumphs continued as Duke football became bowl eligible for the first time since 1994 with a last-second victory against North Carolina. The Blue Devils squared off against Cincinnati in the Belk Bowl at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, N.C., but crucial fourth-quarter turnovers proved costly. Despite the 48-34 loss, Duke made major strides that paved the way for bowl appearances in the next two seasons. Head coach David Cutcliffe was named ACC Coach of the Year for his efforts in turning the program around. Duke men’s and women’s basketball teams had successful seasons, with both teams beating North Carolina at home and on the road and advancing to the Elite Eight. On the women’s side, the Blue Devils won the ACC tournament title, beating the Tar Heels 92-73 to capture its eighth ACC tournament title in program history and third in four seasons.

prominently in national news, including the pioneering work around the use of the polio virus to treat cancer patients—which gained national attention when it was featured on CBS’ “60 Minutes.” The University moved one step closer to putting the Anil Potti scandal behind it—settling a lawsuit involving the families of eight cancer patients who Potti treated based on falsified research. On the court, Duke men’s basketball overcame a season filled with ups and downs to capture its fifth national title with a thrilling 68-63 victory against Wisconsin. Head coach Mike Krzyzewski also surpassed yet another milestone in January, becoming the first head coach in Division I men’s basketball history to reach 1,000 career wins with a comeback victory against St. John’s at Madison Square Garden. Freshmen Jahlil Okafor, Tyus Jones and Justise Winslow led the way and have all since declared for the NBA draft, which will be held in late June. Although Duke football ended its 2014 campaign with a loss to Arizona State in the Sun Bowl in the final minutes, the program continued to make strides under the direction of head coach David Cutcliffe, posting consecutive winning seasons for the first time since 1989. Nine football players were signed by teams in the NFL, most notably offensive guard Laken Tomlinson, who was drafted by the Detroit Lions as the 28th overall pick, and wide receiver Jamison Crowder, who was selected 105th by the Washington Redskins.
