In what has become an Orientation Week tradition, the 1,700 members of the Duke Class of 2020 spelled out their graduation year on the East Campus lawn Wednesday night.  

The session was captured and broadcast live online by a team of student broadcasters who interviewed first-year students about their bonding experiences during Orientation and their hopes for the coming year. Campus administrators, athletic coaches and others came by to talk to the students

The event was organized by university communications and student affairs units, including Duke Photography and New Student Programs. It marked the 12th time the university has organized the photo session.
