<p>What does it mean? The historical relationship meant that the campus got a really great chapel!</p>

<p>The current Dean of the Chapel is Anglican.

<p>And from the link posted by padastra:

In the history of the Methodist Church and higher education in the United States, Duke has much in common with other Methodist related universities like Northwestern, Syracuse, Vanderbilt, or the University of Southern California. However, each institution has its own history. Duke University would not be the institution it is today without its historic and symbolic ties to the Methodist Church but it always has been independent in its governance.
