<p>Hmmm....not famous enough. lol</p>
<p>We need like Tom Cruise, Angelina Jolie, Devil May Cry famous at Duke!</p>
<p>Tom Wolfe's daughter, Nixon at Duke Law, Rudy Guiliani's son Andrew will be playing golf for Duke next year (SNL did tons of skits about him back in the day because he was fat and obnoxious during his dad's speeches)... Once you're there you'll realize that there are kids at Duke who have really important parents (like CEOs of newsworthy companies, famous political scientists, editors, etc.), but outside of the basketball players, none too famous themselves.</p>
<p>Oh-- did anyone watch that show on MTV a year or two a girl called Rich Girls? The brother of Jaime (his dog was the one that got sick, if anyone watched it) will be a sophomore.</p>
<p>Bluestar, you never answered my last PM! </p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>Ralph Lauren,Tom Brokaw,Ted Koppel, Dan Quayle, Henry Kravitz(billionaire financier) had kids at Duke in recent years. I also heard one of Bush Sr.'s grandkids was at Duke in the late 1990s, but I'm not sure about that one...</p>
<p>Natalie Portman graduated in 2003 with a major in psychology.</p>
<p>Natalie Portman is only "bad" at acting in Star Wars, I think shes really good in all her other movies. Shes good enough to win a Golden Globe and be nominated for an Academy Award.</p>
<p>how much do "connections" really count for when your looking for a job in america? im international and where i live its prob more important than anything else i can think of..</p>
<p>melinda gates, bill gates' wife, went to duke. and so did elizabeth dole.</p>
<p>Yeah Melinda went to Duke University and Duke Fuqua School of Business</p>
<p>Well..this doesn't count...but..I just saw "How to lose a guy in 10 Days" again...and noticed that Matthew McConaughey's (spelling?) character...wears a duke t-shirt for some time in the movie! YAY! lol :p</p>
<p>thats soo funny!! i just watched that movie too!! and i was thinking the exact same thing</p>
<p>In an interview, Bow Wow said he'd be going to Duke or UMD-College Park. Don't know which one he's chosen, though.</p>
<p>Are these celebrities really that intelligent (vis-a-vis Bow Wow, Hillary Duff, etc)? :confused:</p>
<p>How does one nonchalantly "choose" to go to Duke or Harvard?</p>
<p>well bow wow's probably going for basketball and Hilary isn't officially going to Harvard. She's in some special program or something and just taking classes. Plus, wouldn't their fame count as a hook anyway?</p>
<p>LOL uhm...i suppose. But I always conjectured that hooks must be coupled with some facet of intellectual strength. Bow Wow is seriously getting a basketball scholarship? :confused:</p>
<p>Maybe Bow Wow is really a smart guy...yeah...nevermind</p>
<p>Granted, it's from Wikipedia, meaning it could be entirely false, but there you go. :)</p>
<p>Natalie Portman went to harvard.</p>
