Duke East

East is one of the sites for TIP Center for Summer Studies. It is the most traditional and fun campus, and its courses are often more artistic ones. Most classes are the SAME each year, we want something new! East is undoubtedly the best campus as it is superior to that of other campuses! Don't listen to West propaganda!

East Term I is the ideal Tip lifestyle. No to Term II, administration is worse!

Features of Duke East

East is, by far, the best campus for TiP. Its proximity to Ninth Street and its several large quads (see below) make it fun at breaks and for activities. It certainly forms a bond among the TiPsters, in addition to making it extra-imperative that we get to know each other quickly.

In 1998 term 1, the TiPster Population was 534 in 5 dorms, including Giles. Nowadays its around 260-280 on average.

Evening activities were shortened from 7:00-9:00 to 7:15-30-8:45, at the happiness of many Tipsters. Moonscreaming takes place at either 9:00 or 9:30. It's said that East is more wild than West - which is actually true, for the most part!
