Duke Dimensions: A Magazine for Undergraduates

In her editor's note, Kimberly J. Jenkins (T’76, M.E.’77, Ph.D.’80) wrote, "DIMENSIONS is a publication designed to provide important financial information to those who invest in Duke University. Since undergraduate students constitute a large group of 'shareholders,' this publication focuses on issues most directly related to student concerns." Because tuition and university financial decisions determine a large part of the student experience, students often want to know how Duke distributes its money. In the context of Duke’s financial strains in the 1980s, investments in athletics, new building construction, and declining department funding were main concerns for students.
