Campus Eateries: A Reader’s Digest Those who tire of The Marketplace the East Campus dining hall - can find their fair share of dining options on campus, provided they have the food points to pay. At Duke you can find everything from the luxury and class of the dining options at the Washington Duke Inn & Golf Club to the on-the-go convenience of Pauly Dogs and other carts on the West Campus Plaza. If you’re new to campus and still don’t understand seasoned Dukies who throw out words like “Dillo” and “Loop,” it is essential that you read on. 1. Alpine Bagels (West Union). At 8:30 a.m. on any given weekday, you can walk into Alpine and see a line full of sleep-deprived sophomores waiting for their breakfast bagel. Alpine offers an impressive selection of quick breakfast items and filling bagels to satisfy even the hungriest early-riser. You can also stop by a few hours later and have a sandwich served on any of their legendary bagels. 2. Armadillo Grill (Bryan Center). Ask a Dukie to sum up the “Dillo” experience and you’re likely to hear the words “cheap,” “fast,” and “good” at some point in their description. Armadillo Grill is the only Mexican restaurant on campus, so if you just can’t live without your weekly fix of enchiladas and refried beans, then you’ll spend a healthy portion of your food points here. The restaurant is also home
to the only bar on campus, so if you stop by on Friday nights you can hear the latest big student band all the while enjoying a sweating cold one. 3. Blue Express (Levine Science Research Center). Stop by the LSRC to enjoy lunch with a Middle Eastern flair. The cafeteria has practically everything, but those who want to enjoy the best of this science major’s paradise order the daily special. They’re all good. 4. Bull City Sweets (Plaza). This new addition to the plaza cart collection has every dessert you could possibly want. If you need a dessert on the go, try the cupcakes. 5. East Campus Coffeehouse (East Campus, back side of Crowell Building). If you need some fair trade, organic coffee, there are few things better than Counter Culture. The coffeehouse also has a number of authentic teas for those who aren’t keen on roasted beans. Be sure to stop by on the weekends to catch some local bands who are trying to make it big. 6. The Loop (West Union). This place has everything–pizza, salad, wraps and burgers. Everybody loves the meals, but their lesser known desserts are also a sight to behold. Their chocolate fudge sundaes and milkshakes are virtually unbeatable on campus. 7. Only Burger (any road). It really is the only burger you’ll ever want. If you see this burger joint on wheels, you need to buy a burger. It’s as simple as that. The
The Refectory inside the Divinity School offers organic dishes and arguably the best lunches on campus. only trick is finding the mysterious white truck, which you can do by following them on Twitter or visiting their Web site. 8. Pauly Dogs (Plaza). You can’t go to Pauly Dogs and just order a hot dog with ketchup. Pauly’s creations (everything from a hot dog with chips on top to one themed like a pizza) are a must have for anyone who seeks to call themself a Dukie. 9. The Refectory (Divinity School).
Venture down into the bowels of Westbrook and you will find one of the best lunches on campus. The Refectory offers a wide selection of wholesome organic dishes. The grilled cheese and tomato soup combo is quite simply...divine. 10. Twinnie’s (CIEMAS). Another engineer perk. Coffee, sandwiches, little eclaires - take a break from that math problem set and prepare to have your world rocked.

Duke Libraries: your favorite studying spots As a Duke student, you likely spend a large portion of your year in the library. And there is no place better equipped to meet all of your library needs than Duke. The University’s library system is one of the top 10 private institution systems in the country. Centered around the William R. Perkins Library and its seven branches, the campus also boasts separately administered libraries at the Divinity School, the Fuqua School of Business, the School of Law and the School of Medicine.
The Duke University Libraries, with 11 locations on and near campus, offer small group study rooms and infinite reading sources.
Although undergraduates may step into one of the focused libraries for a research paper or a looking for a film to rent, Perkins and its offshoots generally meet and go beyond undergraduates’ needs. The Perkins system includes Lilly Library and Music Library on East Campus, Bostock Library, the Biology & Environmental Sciences Library and the rare, special and University archive collections on West campus. Between these libraries all within a short bus ride of one another, most students can find whatever book or information they need to complete nearly any assignment. They can also find movies to check out to watch for class or relaxation and ample space to study. It is easy to think that with so many books, so much information spread among so many libraries, a student may never find what he or she is looking for. No assumption could be furthar from the truth. It is always good to stop for directions, and Duke librarians encourage students to ask for their assistance. As evidenced by their slogan all over the library and the Duke University Libraries Web site, theUniversity’s library staff wants you to: “Save time, ask a librarian.” But students don’t have to seek out the information or reference desks to find help in the library. If a question or comment is not urgent, students can e-mail the library through its Web site. Students can use the library Web site or computers to Instant Message a librarian with a question, and DukeRef will help you locate your source material whether you are on the fourth floor of Bostock or in your East Campus dorm room.
Can a child count on you this fall? Join the national effort to improve math education this fall by becoming a tutor in the America Counts program. Modeled after the very successful America Reads Challenge, America Counts lets volunteers and university students in the federal work-study program tutor elementary-school students in basic math.
America Counts FAQs
Why be a math tutor?
Who can tutor?
• Students need solid math skills in the information age. • Low income students who take algebra and geometry attend college at three times the rate of those who do not. • Math teaches students ways of thinking that apply in every workplace. • Math tutors are great role models. • Local schools need math tutors. • It’s fun!
America Counts welcomes undergraduate and graduate student tutors. Volunteers tutor two hours each week. Students eligible for federal work-study tutor up to six hours each week. The rate of pay for undergraduate work-study tutors is $13.25 per hour. For graduate students, the rate is $16.25.
Where do tutors work? At one of eight Duke-Durham Neighborhood Partnership elementary and middle schools.
When do I tutor? America Counts tutors work with children during school, Monday through Friday.
How do I apply? Download an application from the Duke Center for Civic Engagement - Durham Programs Web site at http://civicengagement.duke.edu and submit in person by September 15.
For immediate answers when a student is not near a computer to send an IM, students now have the option of texting a librarian. To seek assistance in any Perkins system library, a student need only text their question “DukeRef:...” to 265010. A librarian will promptly text back the answer to the wayward student’s phone. But library life at Duke is about more than finding books for conducting research or writing papers. Spending time in the library is as essential to Duke students as watching basketball games. Not only will Duke libraries provide you with reference help, research consultations, computer assistance through the Office of Information Technology and writing resources and tutors through the WritingStudio, it also provides study space to suit all students’ needs however different they may be. Perkins, Bostock and Lilly libraries—the most well traversed libraries during exam season—offer computer clusters, silent reading rooms, group study rooms, desks and comfy chairs. The Link in the basement of Perkins is bright and perfect for study groups that need a lot of table space, and Von der Hayden Pavillion in Perkins, which sells coffee and Saladelia food, is a louder popular spot. No matter how you like to study, there is a place for you in the Perkins systems libraries from the austere Gothic Reading room to the warm armchairs in the bridge between Perkins and Bostock, there is a place for you to study—or nap—as you choose.

Welcome to The Triangle The Triangle
Durham
Durham is at the pinnacle of a vast Triangle region of North Carolina, formed along with Chapel Hill to the south and west and Raleigh, the State Capital, to the south and east. The Triangle region is ranked among the best places in the nation to live and to do business. Durham, Raleigh and Chapel Hill each has its own unique colleges, universities and attractions. The RDU International Airport and the Research Triangle Park (RTP) are located in the center of the Triangle region. Some of the world’s largest corporations have research and manufacturing facilities in RTP, including IBM, GlaxoSmithKline, NORTEL Networks, Verizon Communications, and agencies such as the EPA.
Located at the “apex” of the Triangle, Durham is the home of Duke University and North Carolina Central University. Formerly a stop on the Great Indian Trading Path, the Eno River and present Durham area were home to Native Americans of the Eno, the Haw and Occaneechi tribes. In the 1750s the fertile area attracted Scottish, Irish and British settlers. Nearby Hillsborough and Raleigh developed as centers of trade and government. Present day Durham originated with the arrival of the railroad and the need for a water tank or stop which was accommodated by the gift of land by Dr. Bartlett Durham. The community grew dramatically after the Civil War when it became a manufacturing center
of popular products made from the unique, locally grown “bright leaf” tobacco. The city became known around the world for its much-advertised Bull Durham brand and the business acumen of Washington Duke and his son, James B. Duke, who organized the American Tobacco Company. By the turn of the century it was also known for the development of highly successful African-American businesses such as the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company. Today Durham is called the “City of Medicine” and is home to the acclaimed Duke University Medical Center, and pharmaceutical, biotech and highSEE WELCOME ON PAGE 9

Chapel Hill
Raleigh
Chapel Hill grew up around the University of North Carolina (UNC). Established in 1793, UNC enjoys the distinction of being the oldest state university in the nation. Considered by some to be “the ultimate college town,” Chapel Hill boasts the Franklin Street district (across from UNC campus) with restaurants, bars, theaters and shops (popular with UNC and Duke students alike), as well as the Morehead Planetarium, the North Carolina Botanical Garden, the Ackland Art Museum and more. Football, basketball, soccer or lacrosse, when the Blue Devils and the Tar Heels duke it out, nobody is an uninterested spectator! For more information, visit the Chapel Hill Orange County Visitors Bureau’s Web site at www.chocvb.org.
The capital city of North Carolina is also the home of North Carolina State University and the Wolfpack. NC State is nationally known for its Veterinary School, research in engineering and agriculture and its basketball and football teams. Besides the state’s capitol buildings and great restaurants, the area is home to many attractions, including the N.C. Executive Mansion; three state museums of art, history and natural sciences; historic sites; more than 150 parks and lakes; performance centers; concert venue; and professional sports, the Carolina Hurricanes play in the RBC Center.

Inevitably, that activity is Blue Devil athletics.
Basketball and football are the marquee sports here at Duke, and Mike Krzyzewski and David Cutcliffe might be the biggest names on campus. Duke Athletics, though, is known for the quality teams it puts out in most every sport.
Walk across Towerview Drive on your first trip to West Campus, look a little to the right, and you’ll see what appears to be just another Gothic style building, but this one is a little taller than the rest. That’s Cameron Indoor Stadium, the most famous basketball arena on the planet (sorry, Madison Square Garden). The feeling of walking into Cameron in late October for that first exhibition game pales in comparison to anything you’ll have done up to that point—and words can’t describe the rush you’ll get after spending weeks in a tent for a chance to mercilessly boo Carolina. Cameron is a special place, as any current or former Duke student will tell you, and being a Cameron Crazie isn’t something you’ll want to pass up. But there’s more to Duke sports than just the men’s basketball team. A lot more. The Blue Devil football team, which kicks off its season Sept. 5 against Richmond, had been pretty bad for a long time—until last season. First-year head coach David Cutcliffe, now in his second

Koskinen Stadium, located just behind Wallace Wade, also houses the men’s and women’s soccer teams. Looking for something to do on a chilly winter day? Brave the cold and head out to Sheffield Indoor Tennis Center, where you can watch the finest female tennis player in the country, Mallory Cecil. Duke won the NCAA team championship in 2009, and Cecil took home the individual title as well. The Blue Devils return most of the talent from that record-setting squad, and should challenge for another title in 2010. And let’s not forget about the men’s

Duke Forest, Gardens offer peace, quiet Duke may be an elite academic institution, but that doesn’t mean there’s no time for fun. The campus offers plenty of amenities to help students escape from classroom stresses, whether that means relaxation or an exciting adventure.
The Sarah P. Duke Gardens, located on Central Campus, offers a relaxing atmosphere for visitors and students alike.
The Office of Student Activities and Facilities’ Outpost, located under the West Union building, provides a variety of rental equipment to Duke students, including bikes, tents and emergency supplies, as well as a library of guidebooks to help plan your adventure. The Outpost also recently added a selection of team building equipment and outdoor games, such as croquet and bocce, for student use. Grab some discs and head to the East Campus disc golf course, or borrow a soccer ball and kick it around one of the many lawns around campus. OSAF also holds single-session crash courses for students to learn new skills in a fun environment—previous classes include cake decorating, sailing & orienteering and the art of beer. Freewater Productions, funded by Duke University Union, lets Duke students get an advance peek at the latest blockbusters.

If you’re looking for a quiet walk, look no further than Duke Forest, 7,060 acres of nature. It’s the perfect place to walk, run, bike or even go horseback riding. Although Duke does not keep horses, there are several stables in the vicinity. The forest also provides an unparalleled research opportunity for students interested in forestry and related research. The Sarah P. Duke Gardens offers a relaxing atmosphere for visitors, not to mention endless photo opportunities, and it is a favorite spot for students to study— and sleep—in the spring. The climbing wall at Wilson Recreation Center provides training for budding mountaineers or just those looking for a way to unwind after a stressful day of studying.

THE CHRONICLE
University campus contains rich history In the mid-nineteenth century, Durham’s fairground was dismantled, its racetrack closed. In its place were constructed buildings that would one day become the freshman campus for one of the world’s most prestigious universities. Though freshmen these days may feel relegated to the isolated East Campus, it is actually the original campus of our modern institution. Built in the 1800s, it served as the primary campus for Duke’s predecessor, Trinity College, which moved to Durham in 1892 from Randolph Country, North Carolina, with the financial support of Washington Duke. A large donation from Duke’s son, James B. Duke, and the subsequent renaming of the college to Duke University—after Washington Duke—resulted in the development of what is now West Campus as the new hub of the University. Duke’s gift stipulated that a Women’s College be created, and after extensive renovations in the 1920s—which resulted in its Georgian-style architecture— East Campus became the site of the new Women’s College for 42 years, from 1930-1972. After the Women’s College
was merged with Duke University, East Campus housed a coed mix of both freshmen and upperclassmen—the first coed dormitory on East Campus was established in 1896—until 1995. At that time, under the leadership of President Nannerl Keohane, East Campus became a solely freshman campus, shaping what is known today as the “first-year experience.” Currently, all freshmen live together in the 14 dormitories on East Campus and eat together at the Marketplace in the East Union building, but many are unaware of the rich history that surrounds their home away from home. East Campus hosted Booker T. Washington, when he came to speak at Trinity—the first white college in the South to do so— in 1896, and President Theodore Roosevelt walked East Campus in 1905. Additionally, many Duke establishments had their humble roots on East Campus. Duke’s Law School was founded in 1904 and originally operated out of the East Duke building. The engineering school also had its beginnings on East Campus, with students living
The statue of James B. Duke and the Duke Chapel are just two reminders of the campus’ rich history. in Southgate and attending classes on East Campus. Student Housing for Academic and Residential Experimentation, which will be housed on Central Campus this Fall, was formed on East Campus in 1970, in Wilson dormitory. Wilson also once produced its own publication, The Wilsonian.
and approximately fifty students per year live in one of them. Epworth Inn is now Epworth dormitory, although it was reduced to about one-third of its original size by fire. Crowell Science Building and The Ark—which was once a basketball court, a bowling alley and a dining hall— are also remnants of East Campus’ origins.
Three buildings are still standing today from the 1800s,
Although West Campus claims the iconic chapel and Gothic ar-
chitecture that many associate with Duke University, the brick East Campus is steeped in the institution’s history, from the infamous Basset Affair in 1903 to woodpiles and food crops during both world wars. So next time you take a break on the East Campus wall, keep in mind that you are sitting not just on a wall, but on a centuryold gift from the son of the University’s namesake.

Lemur Center is one of a kind Since coming to Duke from Yale University in 1966, the Lemur Center has housed and studied the world’s largest and most diverse captive collection of rare prosimian primates (mostly lemurs from the island of Madagascar). As Madagascar’s population is currently doubling every 25 years, there is ever growing pressure for land, mainly for slash-and-burn agriculture. Therefore, the protection and preservation of these truly unique primates requires a holistic approach involving multiple strategies both in Madagascar and internationally. The Lemur Center houses over 250 animals made up of 25 species and subspecies of prosimians. During
a walking tour of the Center visitors are introduced to representatives from the species housed there. The protected enclosures and captive breeding programs are designed to enable researchers from around the world to study these unique animals. Unlike a zoo, visitors are not allowed to tour the Center unescorted, but rather are required to schedule appointments for a docent-guided walking tour of the facility. Admission fees directly support the primates. Work/study positions are available, but students need to provide their own transportation. For additional information see our web site at http://lemur.duke.edu and for appointments please call 919-489-3364.
Visitors are welcome to take guided tours of the Lemur Center by making appointments in advance. Call 489-3364 for more info.

‘Blue Devils’ origin Mascot name dates back to the 1920s
As the campus leaders from the Class of 1923 made plans for their senior year, they decided to select a name since the desired results by democratic nomination and vote had been inconclusive. The editors of The Archive and The Chanticleer, two of the other student publications, agreed that the newspaper staff should choose a name and “put it over.” Thus William H. Lander, as editor-in-chief, and Mike Bradshaw, as managing editor, of the Trinity Chronicle began the academic year 1922-23 referring to the athletic teams as the Blue Devils. Their class had been the first post-war freshmen and the student body was full of returning veterans so the name needed no explanation. Acknowledging that it was somewhat unpopular, they nevertheless believed it to be the best name nominated. Neither the college press nor the cheerleaders used the name that first year. In fact, The Chanticleer made fun of the selection and process by quoting someone saying “We will use blew devvies even if no one else does.” Much to the editor’s surprise no opposition materialized, not even from the college administration.

As the war was ending in Europe, the Trinity College Board of Trustees lifted its quarter-century ban of football on campus. After playing an intramural class first year the traditional nomenclature of the Trinity Eleven, the Blue and White or the Methodists (as opposed to the Baptists of nearby Wake Forest) described the team. In September, 1921, the student newspaper, the Trinity Chronicle, launched a campaign for a “catchy name, one of our own possession that would be instantly recognizable nationwide in songs, yells and publicity.” At a campus pep rally to stir up enthusiasm it was pointed out that Georgia Tech was gaining recognition as the “Golden Tornados” and that rival North Carolina State College had recently adopted the name “Wolf Pack.” There were numerous nominations including Catamounts, Grizzlies, Badgers, Dreadnaughts, and Captains which was in honor of the well-liked Coach W. W. “Cap” Card. Believing a choice utilizing the school colors of dark blue and white to be appropriate, the newspaper editors urged a selection from among the nominations of Blue Titans, Blue Eagles, Polar Bears, Blue Devils, Royal Blazes, or Blue Warriors. None of the nominations won strong favor but Blue Devils apparently had enough support to elicit the criticism that it would arouse opposition on the Methodist campus “for obvious reasons,” and that it might prove risky and jeopardize football if a controversial name were used at that particular time. The football season passed with no official selection of a name.
ognition has long been established. With the popular Red Devil mascot frequently being challenged throughout the country, the origin of Duke’s Blue Devil is one of the most often requested items of information in the University Archives. Questioners are universally surprised to discover its origin is more military and patriotic than religious.

During World War I the Chasseurs Alpins, nicknamed “les Diables Bleus,” were well known French soldiers. They first gained attention when their unique training and alpine knowledge was counted upon to break the stalemate of trench warfare in their native region of the French Alps. Unfortunately the Vosges Campaign in March, 1915, failed to alter the status quo even though the Blue Devils won accolades for their courage. However, their distinctive blue uniform with flowing cape and jaunty beret captured public imagination. When the United States entered the war, units of the French Blue Devils toured the country helping raise money in the war effort. Irving Berlin captured their spirit in song describing them as “strong and active, most attractive . . . those Devils, the Blue Devils of France.”
