iPods for Duke Freshmen
Incoming freshmen at Duke University will be given free iPods by the school for use with their classes. The 20-GB iPods will come with orientation schedules, calendars and even the Duke fight song. The lucky students will get to use the iPods in conjunction with many of their classes and a special school website, allowing them to listen to foreign language instruction and other multimedia class material.
Alright, so who’s for using the incidental fee for iPods? Considering the amount UO students pay each term, we should be getting the 40-GB versions.

What? Our incidental fees should be used for something tangible that students can actually use? Impossible!

I don’t know anything about the Duke fight song, but it’s a rare soul on the UO campus who can’t at least hum the main tune of the Ducks fight song … whatever it’s called.
Duh-nuh-nuh, nuh nuh nuh NUH nuh! Duh nuh nuh, nuh-nuh-nuh-naah! And so on and so forth.
The “iPods will come with… the Duke fight song.”
I still don’t think anyone will learn it.
In both high school & college, I always either mumbled or stonewalled when they wanted us to sing the fight song.
And you call me jingoist.
