Maurice

My classmates are goal-driven, passionate creatures who are very difficult to compete with if one comes to college unsure of his or her prospective career paths. Many of the people at my college have chosen their respective career paths for themselves; they usually have not chosen them based on the joy they bring but because they offer immediate financial stability to them and their families. I know several people entering "corporate law" after Duke simply because it "pays the bills". The same things can be said of many pre-medical, economics, and pre-law students here at Duke University.

Idan

They are diverse, academically ambitions yet relaxed and satisfied with their lives.
