[quote=Anonymous]Other than Grant Hill and perhaps Adam Silver, the people "representing" Duke on the cover of the latest alumni magazine were a very odd mix that did not reflect well on the University. A lot of fake enthusiasm and smiles. Then the mix of people profiled was odd - a good chunk of impressive, interesting people but also some who have done nothing of interest. Duke is trying too hard to be the cool kid hosting the cool party. There used to be a more subtle "act like you've been there before/IYKYK" vibe about Duke that made it great. There is too much of the nerd/super cool guy wanna be dichotomy, and they have frozen out all of those in between who made Duke great in the past.[/quote]
