Duke has a garbage campus, a high school gymnasium, and coach that looks like he is always constipated. There is no reason that a kid outside of North Carolina should want to go to Duke, anymore than kids would dream of playing basketball for Northwestern.
As usual, you don't worry about your credibility when you post in GopherHole.
Conde' Nast Traveler names Duke University the 10th prettiest college campus in America. Spanning an impressive 8,801 acres, Duke University is dominated by Collegiate Gothic buildings, most notably the towering, 210-foot-high Duke Chapel, with a 50-bell carillon, three pipe organs, and seating for 1,800.
But the scenery isn't just about the buildings: The Duke Forest spans more than 700 acres and the Sarah P. Duke Gardens, designed by celebrated American landscape designer Ellen Biddle Shipman, is home to a world-class array of irises, palms, roses, and more.
Duke University was once again rated among the nation’s top 10 universities in a new ranking out Tuesday (today) from U.S. News & World Report.
In the new report, Duke tied for eighth place among national universities that offer doctoral degrees. Duke was ranked eighth in last year’s rankings as well.
Duke was also singled out as providing one of the best values among national universities. Duke rated eighth in that listing, which takes into account both a school’s academic quality and the net cost of attendance for students receiving need-based financial aid.
In the category “Best colleges for veterans,” Duke was tied for third.
