“The Duke community embodies a profoundwork ethic, extraordinary talent and a
boundless capacity for strategic thinking.My deepest hope for students is that
they experience the happiness thatcomes from getting lost in an equation, in
a sentence, in the cells of a petri dish, inthe elegance of an algorithm, or inthe progress of a novel. Our liberal
arts and sciences education prepares students to adapt andintegrate their knowledge, and
to find their place in our rapidlychanging world. And Duke
teaches students a great appreciation for humanity's rich
breadth of history and society,arts, sciences and culture.”
