Could This Be Just Another Phony " Hate Crime "
You would have to wonder how Duke would allow this ? Then I find out this rebel
is an “ Uncle Tom “ who is on two scholarships and is President of a race
relations committee.
Phil Kurian and his brother both go to Duke

My name is Philip Kurian, but most of my friends call me Phil. I am a student at
Duke University, where I have the distinct privilege of being a Benjamin N. Duke
Scholar.
Kurian, a public policy studies and
physics major from South Carolina, is a former director of the Center for Race
Relations,
writes a column on race and other issues for The
Chronicle and is a Black Student Alliance representative to the President's
Council on Black Affairs.
With his scholarship, he hopes to obtain graduate degrees in law and education
and said primary or secondary school teaching and possibly journalism are in his
future.

"I am sure this scholarship will open doors wherever I decide to go, as
Truman Scholars are working at almost every level of leadership in government,
academia, journalism and the non-profit sector," Kurian said. "In addition to
financial support for graduate school, the scholarship will (hopefully) help me
cling to what little idealism I have left!"
Vitarelli is a New Jersey native with majors in public policy studies and
economics. He currently serves as president of Campus Council and co-founded the
Duke University Greening Initiative, an organization that seeks to promote
environmental sustainability on campus. He said after law school he hopes to
return to
New Jersey and become district attorney, modeling himself after celebrated New
York district attorney Eliot Spitzer.
