Fresh from their sharp performance on Greta Van Susteren's Fox News Channel show, Christiane Regelbrugge and Emily Wygod, the two spokespersons for Duke Students for an Ethical Durham, were profiled in yesterday's Duke Chronicle. On Van Susteren's show, the duo predicted a snowball effect of other Duke student groups coming to Students for an Ethical Durham to help out in the voter registration drive, which seeks to register 2000 Duke students in time for the November election.
I can't wait to see how Broadbutt spins this phenomena to the pots bangers when they start whining that the "out of towners" are diluting their influence...
And the hippies are proving to be the least liberal of them all!
Excellent post.

The momentum from the student organizers has to put enormous pressure on Nifong and his handlers. A riled up student body that can organize 2000-plus votes has the potential to shake up a lot of vested interests in Durham.
As to the ongoing miserable performance of Brodhead, Duke's Alumnae presumably are continuing to put pressure on the administration and Trustees. The Law Faculty are a lost cause until one of their own is caught in a compromising situation and is falsely accused.
