The key to being a successful pioneer isn’t the boldness to go first. It’s having the skills and fortitude to survive the experience. Well, Claiborne is still around, and the story of his Duke experience is now told in “C.B.: Power to the Player,” a new documentary short film.
The documentary is produced by the Program in Education's Javier Wallace and Martin Smith. The two former college athletes conduct research and teach about the historical and cultural significance of the intersections between athletics and activism.
Following two years of work by the Trinity Curriculum Development Committee, the Arts & Sciences Council adopted a new curriculum that will take effect in Fall 2025. The A&S curriculum governs much of undergraduate education at Duke and the changes will speak to the interests and needs of our students in the coming decades.
