about our
new web site

“It has a special right to it, to be the first class of the new millennium. It’s just a great feeling.”

—Nate James ’01, in cap and gown instead of Blue Devil basketball blues, on commencement day, in the News & Observer


“I really believe that this is not an accomplishment but an honor. Winning a national championship is an accomplishment because you’re competing against other people. Professionally, it’s the ultimate honor that you can receive. Given the love I have for coaching, to be put as a coach into the Hall of Fame could not be any better.”

—Men’s basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski, on being inducted into the National Basketball Hall of Fame, at a news conference on campus in May
