What is Duke doing to get better?

I already knew about that building. I just didnt mention it. Although it is great that Duke is building this new facility, I mean what are its long term goals? What does it lack that HYPSM has, and how is it addressing those? While this building is part of the puzzle, there is much more level of improvement to be hand. I was wondering as a general trend.

Does it have a trend of attracting extremely highly sought after professors, or is it recently enticing more HYPSM cross-admits to come to Duke, or perhaps even peer schools like Penn or Columbia. A good question would also be: Why did the number of applicants to Duke drop by about 1,300? That is significant. There are variations yearly, but as a general trend, almost every other top tier school’s applicants went up considerably.

@Jwest22 And I don’t know what you’re talking about. This is a forum for asking questions and having discussions. It’s not about having my hand held, its about instigating a discussion about a university. I contributed to the discussion about the endowment, I am not just asking questions.So, please, really, if you want to contribute, do it calmly. If you don’t, don’t.
