What better way to start an academic year than to throw a
block party to let all varieties of the Duke community from students to neighbors
and alumni meet each other? On Monday, the university closed down Chapel Drive outside
the Forlines Alumni House and served up hot dogs, veggie burgers and ice cream and
gave a stage for student and local groups to perform. 

The Duke Alumni Association sponsored the event.  Pictured, Negatu Asmamaw (left) and
Rebecca Shey, both freshmen, joke around while they prep their hot dogs.
