  • Camping out with the Crazies Duke Student Tells the Inside Story of Krzyzewskiville
    Camping Out with the Crazies Duke Student Tells the Inside Story of Krzyzewskiville Recent Duke University graduate Aaron Dinin has produced an entertaining, imaginative look at Krzyze- wskiville, the tent city named after Duke University’s head basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski (Sha-shef- ski). A unique Duke tradition, Krzyzewskiville is used to determine which students are admitted into key games. Taking Geoffrey Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales as his model, Dinin has created characters who nar- rate their semi-fictionalized tales—by turns reverent, bawdy, and humorous—to enlighten readers about this cherished institution. So the story begins. On a wintry night in Durham, North Carolina, writes Dinin, twelve students huddle under the meager protection of a nylon tent. They have little in common except the sacrosanct tra- dition that has brought them together for the past month. Before the sun next sets, they will anoint them- selves in blue and white paint and enter nearby Cameron Indoor Stadium to worship at the altar of Blue Devil basketball. In the meantime, they abide in Krzyzewskiville. A stranger enters the tent, a respected sportswriter, and suggests that the tenters pass the hours un- til the next tent check by telling stories of Krzyzewskiville. Like Chaucer’s pilgrims, the students compete to tell the best tale. They report on ribald tenting exploits, relate a dream in which Duke basketball players and coaches test a fan’s loyalty, debate the rationality of tenting as a way of allocating students’ tickets, and describe the spontaneous tent city that sprang up one summer when their beloved “Coach K” was offered a job elsewhere.

    Krzyzewskiville at Duke University Official Policy 2016-2017 Table of Contents Introduction Foreword 4 General Rules and Etiquette 5 Walk-Up Line Standard Walk-Up Line Policy 12 Big Game Walk-Up Line Policy 18 Other Games Countdown to Craziness 20 The Parents’ Weekend Game 21 Break Games 22 Carolina Game General Tenting Policy 24 Black Tenting 28 Blue Tenting 30 White Tenting 32 Personal Checks 34 Carolina Walk-Up Line 35 2 1 Introduction ​ 3 Foreword As Coach Mike Krzyzewski would put it, the greatest thing about the phenomena surrounding Krzyzewskiville and Duke basketball is its ever-changing nature. K-Ville is alive, and it is constantly growing and changing in new ways. Remove all of the students adorned in blue and the television cameras, however, and it remains a cornerstone of our university’s social culture. Krzyzewskiville is about more than a simple game of basketball. It’s about more than getting on television. It’s about coming together as a student body to face adversity and find common ground. As Krzyzewskiville has grown, so have the rules surrounding it. The Line Monitors publish this policy to give an understanding not only of our policies and procedures, but the historical context of why our tent city runs in the way that it does. 4 General Rules and Etiquette City Limits Krzyzewskiville is formally defined as the grassy lawn area in front of Card and Wilson gyms, their surrounding sidewalks, and the plaza in front of Cameron and the Schwartz-Butters Building. When Carolina Walk-Up Line is in effect, Krzyzewskiville may be expanded (at the discretion of the Head Line Monitors).

  • Evaluating Alternative Lighting Options for Duke Athletics
    Evaluating LED Lighting Options for Duke Athletics By Andrew Guerra, Master of Environmental Management Candidate, 2015 Dr. Lincoln Pratson, Adviser Casey Collins, Engineering Adviser April 24, 2015 Masters project submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Environmental Management degree in the Nicholas School of the Environment of Duke University Executive Summary Evaluating LED Lighting Options for Duke Athletics By Andrew Guerra April 24, 2015 Duke Athletics spends $222,000 for 3,000MWh1 of electricity annually in 20 athletic venues. As a means to reduce energy costs, Duke Athletics could retrofit the lamps in all 20 venues from HID2 to LED3 for a projected annual cost of $105,000 for 1,400MWH of electricity – the initial capital to do this would be approximately $2MM. Duke Athletics is not advised to retrofit all venues, but instead evaluate the NPV4 associated with the entire portfolio along three warranty periods: 10, 18, and 25 years to negotiate the most optimal warranty with lighting vendors. After finalizing a warranty period, examining the NPV/kWh savingd will help Duke Athletics make a priority list of individual venues. LED and HID The 20 athletic venues in this analysis use HID as a means of primary lighting. This is a legacy technology that is able to produce intense amount of light at a high wattage, which correlates to high costs. LED lamps are emerging as alternatives by emitting high intensity light at reduced wattages. Unlike HID lamps, LED lamps can quickly cycle on/off, and instantly produce optimal light at full brightness. Savings in Wattage An LED lamp is capable of high efficacy, emitting the same lighting density as an HID at a reduced wattage.

  • An Interview with Aaron Dinin, Author of the Krzyzewskiville Tales (Duke University Press, October 2005)
    An Interview with Aaron Dinin, author of The Krzyzewskiville Tales (Duke University Press, October 2005) Aaron Dinin runs, lifts weights, plays viola, and gives guided tours to prospective Duke Students. He also tents in Krzyzewskiville, the makeshift tent city that Duke students inhabit for weeks in order to get into Cameron Indoor Stadium for key basketball games. He loves taking English classes, and his first book, The Krzyzewskiville Tales, was accepted for publication before he graduated. Oh, and it’s loosely modeled on The Canterbury Tales. In other words, Dinin is a typical Duke student. A few weeks before graduation, he talks about the Duke experience, Krzyzewskiville, his literary hero Walt Whitman, and his future in writing. Q: You’ve tented in Krzyzewskiville and written a book about it. But I heard you weren’t at all into sports until you came to Duke. Didn’t you go to any football or basketball games in high school? A: I went to football games as part of the band. We had a huge marching band, and won the national championship. But otherwise, no sports in general. I was really good at warming the bench in Little League. Q: So you came to Duke, and what happened? A: Well, I didn’t go to a game until my RA freshman year invited me to a game against Georgia Tech. A lot of my friends from high school go there, so I said I’d go. Q: You could get in? A: Yes, it wasn’t too bad against Georgia Tech. It wasn’t prime seats or anything; still I think for anyone’s first trip inside Cameron it doesn’t matter.
