The First One Hundred Years
Duke University: The First One Hundred Years presents a visual and narrative history of Duke University from its naming in 1924 to the celebration of its Centennial in 2024. The book includes engaging and memorable photos, stories, quotes, and excerpts from historic speeches and letters that highlight the pivotal moments and people-both known and under-recognized-who have contributed to Duke’s remarkable trajectory from a small liberal arts college to a global research university. The book aims to illustrate the local, national, and global impact that Duke students, faculty, staff, administrators, trustees, alumni, and friends have had over the past century, spanning education, research, healthcare, athletics, arts, innovation, and service.
