DUKES & DUCHESSES Recruitment 2016 Test Study Guide

(As of January 27, 2016) A note about the test: The D&D test is intended to assess your familiarity of Duke University, its history, and current events around the world, as we desire candidates that can speak knowledgeably with University leaders and campus guests. The test consists of two parts: Part I covers the history of Duke as outlined in this packet. These questions are factual and require an extensive knowledge of the information – we suggest that you study well in advance. Part II is a general knowledge section. It will cover current events here at Duke, in the Durham community, and around the world. Though there is no specific way to study for this section, it is suggested that you read The Chronicle regularly and stay informed on current events in the news, especially in the weeks leading up to the exam.

Please direct any questions to Megan Hastings at ddrecruitment2016@gmail.com

HISTORYANDIMPORTANTBUILDINGSDURHAM

BartlettSnipesDurham,aphysician,cameto thispartofNorthCarolina in1853andfounded "Durhamville."A fewyears later, the tobacco industry inDurhamvillewas formed,andBullDurhamSmokingTobaccowasthefirst localproduct. Infact, theterm"bullpen"inbaseballoriginatesfromaBullDurhamadwhichwaspaintedbehindtheN.Y.Yankees'dugout.

WhentheCivilWarended,tobaccobecamethe foundationofDurham industry.Men such as Julian Carr andWashington Duke bothmade their family fortunes in tobacco.In fact,Washington Duke and his sons entered the tobacco industry with their last dollarsfollowingthewar.Washingtonandhissonstraveledfromtowntotownhawkingtheir“brightleaf” tobacco which was sold incanvas bags that Washington Duke’s daughter hadstitched together.TheDukeswere so successful that they eventually created theAmericanTobaccoCompany,which,beforetheShermanAnti-Trustlawswerepassed,controlled90% oftheAmericantobacco industry. Later,themonopolywassplit intoR.J.Reynolds,P. Lorillard,andLiggett andMyers.

Now, however, the biggest industry in Durham ismedicine.More than twenty-fivepercentoftheworkforceisemployedinhealth---relatedoccupations,andthe doctor-to-populationratio is five timesthenationalaverage.Durhamhasseenrapid expansion inrecentyearsandcurrentlyhasapopulationapproaching200,000. In1994the Raleigh-Durham area was rated the #1 place to live in the country by Money Magazine, whichalsoratedtheareaBestPlacetoLiveintheSouthasrecentlyas2000.Durhamhasalsobeenrecognizedasthe“South’sTasiestTown”.

THEDUKEFAMILYThe Duke family made their money in tobacco. Their American Tobacco Company

controlled90%of theAmerican tobaccomarket, andwhen J.B.Duke soldhis interest in thetobaccocompanyneartheturnofthecenturyhemademostofhis fortunebytheninvestingthemoneyinhydroelectricpowerandstartingtheDukePowerCompany.Dukeusedagenerousportionofhis fortune to fundhisphilanthropicendeavors.

TheconnectionsbetweentheDuke familyandDukeUniversitydateback farbeyondJames B. Duke's 1924 donation to Trinity College and includemany other familymembers.Benjamin Duke, James’ brother,was amember of the Trinity Board of Trustees and playedanimportantroleinbuildinglifelongconnectionsbetweentheDukefamilyandTrinityCollege. JamesandBenjamin’s father,WashingtonDukewasoneofTrinity'sstrongestsupporters and he was instrumental in the relocation of Trinity to Durham. It wasWashingtonDukewhoprovided financialassistance for themove,while JulianCarrdonatedthe land.BenjaminDukewas also a generousdonor to theUniversity and later, children ofB.N. Duke would prove to be staunch supporters of Duke University. In 1925, the Angier

THECHAPELConstruction began on Duke Chapel in 1930. The interdenominational chapel seats

1800, and its 210-foot tower is patterned after the Bell Harry Tower of CanterburyCathedral. JamesDukewouldnotallowanybuildingoncampustobetallerthantheChapel.

The figures that appear to guard the Chapel represent some important figures fromhistory.The legend is that the men chosen by President Few were several of the men hemost admired.Above the outside arch of the Chapel stand three figures.These threemenwereeighteenthcenturyMethodistchurchleaderswhocametoAmericafromEngland.Fromlefttorighttheyare:BishopsThomasCokeandFrancesAsbury,andmissionary

evangelistGeorgeWhitefield. The figurescarved inside theentranceportal (beginning fromthe left) are Girolamo Savonarola, a 15th century Italianmonk, reformer, andmartyr;MartinLuther,asixteenthcenturyGermanreligiousreformerandJohnWycliffe,a14thcenturyEnglish translatorof theBibleandmartyr.

TherubyandblueglasswasmadeintheUnited States while the yellow, brown, white, purple, and green glass came from England,FranceandBelgium. Over1millionpiecesofglasswereused. Ingeneral, theupperwindows illustrate scenes from theOldTestamentwhile the lower level illustrates theNewTestament.

The Memorial Chapel, a small room to the left of the chancel and the altar, housesthe three sarcophagi inwhich (from left)BenjaminNewtonDuke,WashingtonN.Duke, andJames Buchanan Duke are interred.The three tombswere carved from over thirty tons ofCarraramarble anddesignedbyCharlesKeck. The three limewood figures in theMemorialChapel represent St. Paul (book and sword), Jesus, and St. Peter (keys).In the crypt belowthemainfloorofthechapelarethetombsofMrs.JamesB.Duke,TerrySanford,andWilliamPrestonFewaswellasseveralother importantmembersof theuniversitycommunity.

At thebackof thenaveof the chapel is theBenjaminN.DukeMemorialOrgan,builtbyDirkA.FlentropofHolland,anddedicated in1976. This five-thousandpipe, five keyboardinstrumentwas transportedpiecebypiece fromEurope tobe reconstructedhere. TheFlentropwasspecificallydesignedformusicoftheseventeenthandeighteenthcenturies,but is easily adapted to fitmusic of any century.It is interesting to note aswell thatwhenfirst installed, the designers realized that the three second reverberation time of the chapelwas insufficient for the size of the organ and a special sealerwas applied to the wallsandceilingtoraise thereverberationtimetoeightseconds.More than five million people havevisited the chapel including First Lady Eleanor RooseveltandContraltoMarianAnderson.Additionally,theDeadSeaScrollswere exhibitedforashorttimeinthechapelin1950.

EASTCAMPUSWhileWest Campus is commonly looked upon as themore architecturally

interestingcampus,EastCampusplaysan integralpart in thehistoryof theUniversity. EastCampus is the original site of Trinity College,which became thenucleus ofDukeUniversityin 1924. In 1892, President John F. Crowell convinced the trustees of Trinity College thatthefutureofthecollegelayinamoreurbansetting.Durhamwasselectedduetothesupport of Washington Duke and Julian Carr. Duke pledged $85,000 for buildings and anendowmentandCarrdonated62½acresof land. The land thatCarrdonatedwas formerlythe site of the bankrupt Blackwell Park, a fair ground and racetrack.The parkwasfrequented by employees of Blackwell's Durham Tobacco Company, where Julian Carrworked in the advertising andmerchandising department.

In 1924, upon JamesB. Duke's donation to Trinity College, East Campus underwentradical change.At the same time constructionwas begun onWest Campus 1.2miles downthe road, the Georgian---style buildings and the original Trinity buildings were being builtandremodeled. EastCampuseventuallybecamethesiteofDukeUniversity'sWoman's

College and remains a testimony to the history ofwomen atDuke today.A plaque bearingthe inscription "Duke UniversityWoman's College" can still be found on the entrance gatesto the University today. In 1970 the process of integrating the two campuses began; thisculminated in 1972 when women were first given housing onWest Campus in Broughton.In1997,EastCampusbecameanall-freshmancampus.

WhileWest Campus can be seen as a monument to James B. Duke, East Campus isthe unmarked monument to his brother, Benjamin N. Duke. It was B.N. Duke whosurroundedthe109-acrecampuswith the2milegreystonewalland funded thebuildingofmanyoftheearlierstructuresthatcanstillbeseen.
