Any Duke or Chapel Hill student can take a course at the other university if it’s not offered at his own university. The difference is that Robertson scholars actually live at the other university for a semester.</p>

I have heard many Duke students say the same thing, and it irritates me. Chapel Hill has some amazing courses and professors, and Duke students would do well to take advantage of them. The Robertson bus runs every 30 minutes, and it’s incredibly easy to head over to Chapel Hill for class, the libraries, the Ackland Museum, etc.</p>
<p>I’ve taken Hittite, Near Eastern Archaeology, and Invertebrate Paleontology at UNC and plan to take Luwian next fall. I also chose to take Biological Oceanography at Chapel Hill because I didn’t want to spend a semester at the Duke marine lab.</p>
