The Duke Men's Lacrosse Scandal

College Search & Selection

<p>I'm surprised by the lack of discussions about this.</p>

<p>Touches on a lot of subjects (to name a few):</p>

<ul>
<li>Athletes (boys behaving badly)</li>
<li>Racial tension (inside and outside college community)</li>
<li>Sexual abuse </li>
<li>Alchohol / drinking on campus</li>
<li>Elitism (vs. greater college community)</li>
</ul>

<p>Finally, how will this incident affect Duke in the long run?</p>

<p>I'm curious to hear from current Duke students and what the general thinking is on campus.</p>

<p>There's a big discussion in the Parent's Cafe.</p>

<p>I have mixed feelings about the DNA results. On the one hand, I'm glad they came back negative. On the other, I'm worried that this will be an excuse to sweep the issues you named under the rug again.</p>
