Seriously, can you guys imagine seeing something like this at, say, a sociology program, or something like that?
******************************
Luxury Fuqua Student Home
· Living environment tailored to the needs of Fuqua students
· Designed by a Fuqua student for Fuqua students
· Three fully-furnished rooms available - just bring clothes
and a toothbrush. Toothbrush included!
· Many other amenities: gourmet kitchen, state-of-the-art
conference room, relaxing deck, guestroom, etc.
Why go through the hassle and expense of moving your belongings to
Durham for just two years at Duke? Why pay a fortune in apartment rent
and utilities only to live a limited lifestyle during the time you
should focus all of your attention on school? Why spend late nights
fighting for team room space at school when you and your teammates can
meet at your team conference room?
This newly-constructed luxury home was custom designed with the unique
needs of Fuqua students in mind and will be available for 2007. It is
situated on a half acre lot in one of the most exclusive areas of Durham
near several country clubs but still close to Fuqua School of Business.
The creator, a current Fuqua student, put painstaking effort to ensure
everything is optimized for the best business school living experience.
This experience has been so well thought out that you can arrive the day
before orientation with only your clothes if you choose.
