What is Duke doing about the critical, sometimes incorrect, things being stated about the allegations in the media or by students and faculty?
The university is guided by principles of openness, inclusiveness, mutual tolerance and mutual respect. We fully support the constitutional right to free speech, even if that speech is critical of the university and comes from those in our campus community. When warranted, and on a limited basis, we are pointing out inaccuracies in an attempt to educate those writing and speaking about the incident and related issues. Our website about the allegations and the university’s response (to which this FAQ is linked) is a part of that effort.
