What's ahead on Fact Checker

Developing stories that FC will have after a sultry, summer weekend break.

Dukies -- present and future -- are joining in a massive outpouring of prayers and support for Jay Ruckleshaus, Class of 2015 Angier B Duke Scholar seriously injured in a diving accident. We have asked about any official university contact with his family -- and gotten no response from Duke PR.

Alumni Department tells FC that totals on reunion giving and Annual Fund won't be available for some time. Other schools -- Princeton for example -- reported two weeks ago.

FC -- having established that President Brodhead's website is in shambles -- now visits other Duke sites and finds they are not much better.

Brodhead mum on FC request for statement of his position on Aycock Dorm, named in honor of a terrorist and racist. National committee of concern being formed.

Atheist and Methodist minister take lead in slamming God-less campus in Kunshan, China, saying it violates our fundamental heritage.

Faculty member questions proliferation of Global Health classes, saying there is no faculty involvement, approval or quality control.

Do you want to participate in a clinical trial of a cancer drug? Dr. Anil Potti -- now in the hamlet of Loris, SC -- has a new offer for you!

Please send comments directly to Duke.Fact.Checker@gmail.com if you want a response. The on-line form is anonymous and we cannot get back to you.

We hope with transfer to a new website in the near future to have open discussion. FC also welcomes Guest FC columns, a complete essay that will be posted just like our own.
