Maps reveal the past in new exhibit
by Brady Buck THE CHRONICLE
by Elizabeth Djinis THE CHRONICLE
Instead of being just a navigational tool, maps may also help people understand the social context of past societies. Duke students curated an exhibit devoted to analyzing maps in innovative ways Friday at Perkins Library. The exhibit, titled Mapping the City: A Stranger’s Guide, was hosted by students working on an independent study with Philip Stern, assistant professor of history and co-director at the Borderworks Humanities Lab. When the students learned that Perkins had reserved a space for a presentation of their choice, they developed an exhibit that featured unseen works from the David M. Rubenstein Rare Book and Manuscript Library collection and shed light on the numerous ways in which maps can be read. “We are really trying to get across the message that maps can’t just get you from point A to point B,” said senior Mary Kate Cash, a key contributor to the exhibit. “They are also here to convey certain messages and intentions.” The exhibit includes rare works such as the Willem Blaeu Atlas, of which only

C.J. Leslie, the preseason ACC Player of the Year, scored a game-high 25 points in N.C. State’s victory against Duke.

RALEIGH, N.C.—Coming into the 2012-13 college basketball season, preseason ACC favorite N.C. State had a motto for the year—“Our State”—in hopes of winning the ACC title over Triangle rivals Duke and North Carolina, who have maintained a firm grip on the conference crown for much of the past decade. And on Saturday, it was the Wolfpack’s state. A deadly fastbreak attack paced by senior floor general Lorenzo Brown—who finished with 12 points and dished out all 13 of N.C. State’s assists in the game—combined with powerful inside forces Richard Howell and C.J. Leslie were too much for the shorthanded Blue Devils to overcome, as N.C. State earned the 84-76 victory. “Their transition is what really won the game for them,” Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski said. “And [Howell] is just a beast.” Playing its first true road game of the year in a sold-out PNC Arena without senior forward Ryan Kelly, No. 1 Duke (15-1, 2-1 in the ACC) looked as if it was in position to take No. 20 N.C. State (14-2, 3-0 in the ACC) to the wire based on its performance in the first half. The Blue Devils were able to lead by as many as eight in the first half, but ended up losing their advantage and went into the locker room down by two points at the half. From the onset of the second half, N.C. State took control, beginning with an 8-2 SEE M. BASKETBALL ON S.W. 4
Law and immigration Woodruff joins Duke debate draws scholars Endowment board by Raisa Chowdhury THE CHRONICLE
Immigration, usually a divisive issue, brought scholars together at a conference held at Duke Law School. The Duke Journal of Constitutional Law and Public Policy’s annual symposium held Friday titled Perspectives on Migration, Governance and Citizenship brought together scholarly voices from across the country to discuss papers slated for publication in the journal this spring. The topic this year was inspired by the Arizona v. United States Supreme Court case regarding whether the state or federal government has jurisdiction over immigration law enforcement, said third-year law student Andrew Hand, editor-in-chief of the Duke Journal of Constitutional Law & Public Policy. “We want to explore immigration in its broadest form,” Hand said. “A lot of recent
developments have happened, and we want to look into what we’ve got right now with immigration policy, where it’s going and where it ought to go.” The title, which was intentionally vague, sought to capture the vision of generating dialogue among scholars who focus on immigration with those who think about political structures in a domestic and international setting, said Noah Pickus, Nannerl Keohane director of the Kenan Institute for Ethics and one of the organizers of the event. The three panels through the day covered the merits of using time as opposed to other bases for determining citizenship, the role of the government in enforcing immigration policies and an international comparison of United States and European Union migration policies. Established Spring 2005, the symposium SEE MIGRATION ON PAGE 4
