Thanks for the clarification.

If that's the case, I would say this is to shut someone up who bitched about it and didn't know the facts of Title IX.

Unless things have changed fairly recently, Duke guarantees housing for students for all 4 years. Hence most people live on campus because, to be honest, Durham is not all that happening a town (although I hear it's much better than it was 25 years ago). Many new dormitories have popped up on campus in the last 10-15 years, giving the students even more housing options.

I lived on campus all 4 years, the last two on "Main West" (main campus, hub of most social activities) and I wouldn't have had it any other way!
