[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I was applying I had multiple alums express concerns regarding race relations on campus. It sounded weird enough that I was out.[/quote] How many years ago? Duke actually has one of the best diversity makeup of the top schools. Only 40% white, 20% Asian, 10% black, 10% Hispanic… etc. [/quote] It wasn't the diversity on campus. It was expressed to me that all of the food service, janitorial and lower level staff are African American. Said to me by Africian American alumni, they felt that it was weird to be served by all African American staff. This was before I lived on the east coast and began to learn how segregated the cities are here, so it sounded really bizarre to me. [/quote] Duke is giving them jobs and contributing to the local economy.[/quote]
