Listening to it on audible. VERY interesting discussion about how Duke deals with scarcity and, in return, creates alumni connections as they deal with the different segments of aluni, undergrads and grad students.....
1) Undergrads - first come first serve except for NC which requires camping out (but you can rotate) up to 2 months prior and builds a shared experience of living in the tents.
2) Grad students - 72 hour camp out with random checks to be sure you are actually still there for the right to enter a LOTTERY - designed to weed out the most bb crazed grad students and also builds a shared hardship leading to increased alumni engagement.
3) Alumni - 8K to get onto the multi-year waiting list. Unspecified what the donation nut is after getting the right to buy tixs.
Mostly what I thought about was missing Harmon and how keeping capacity (and configuration) like that could have been leveraged.
