Richard Brodhead, Duke's ninth president.
New President: An ‘Eloquent Spokesman’ for Higher Education
Heard Around Campus
"And then came the day when, as Huck Finn said, I had to choose 'forever betwixt two things, and I knowed it': my wonderful life in a known world or the adventure of Duke. Well, you know my choice."

--Richard H. Brodhead, Duke's president-elect, on moving from Yale, where he has spent his entire educational career, at the press conference announcing him as Nannerl O. Keohane's successor

"Mike Krzyzewski, as good a coach as he is, he's a better person. And yet, he's the most competitive person that I've probably ever known in my entire life, because he'll give you nothing. He'd beat his grandmother by a hundred if he could, and that's the way it should be."

--Mike Jarvis, former St. John's men's basketball coach, after Coach K's Blue Devil team beat the Red Storm by 21 points earlier this season
"The Medicare bill once again represents a triumph of politics, illustrating some simple and ugly truths about how health policy is made."

--Christopher Conover, an assistant research professor at Duke's Center for Health Policy, Law, and Management
"If I wasn't convinced, I wouldn't be sitting here. I am wholeheartedly convinced that this university and this administration is committed to winning football."

--Ted Roof, new football head coach, at the press conference announcing his promotion from interim to full-time head coach
