High Table is a new student-led initiative at Duke that creates a space for Quad communities to eat together at least one night a week in the Brodhead Center. Your peers are taking an activity that you are already doing (eating dinner) and making it possible to do that together as Quads. After buying your meal from any of the vendors in BC, join your Quads in the second floor space above JB’s and Skillet to eat as a community, share stories from the week, hear about each other’s lives, and experience an opportunity to meet fellow Quad members you might not already know. 

Undergraduate students receive free admission to all home Duke men's basketball games with a valid student ID. For all home games (except Duke vs. North Carolina), undergrads must participate in the walk-up line in K-Ville on game days to be grated entry into Cameron Indoor Stadium. Check in and wrist-banding begins at 7 a.m. on game days and runs throughout the day.

Current Duke graduate and professional students who participated in campout this fall were eligible to purchase a men's basketball season ticket card. Graduate season ticket holders receive priority access for all home Duke men's basketball games. Students may transfer or sell their individual game tickets to other Duke graduate students for face value ($15.65 per game). Please note the official ticket policy for resale. If students are caught selling their ticket to non-Duke students or for more than face-value, they risk having their ticket card revoked.

Graduate or professional students who did not receive a season ticket via the campout process are still eligible to participate in the walk-up line on game days. All season ticket holders will receive priority entry into Cameron Indoor Stadium on game days but should there be additional space, the walk-up line will be admitted entry in the order in which the line has formed (first come, first served).

All current Duke students receive FREE admission to each home women's basketball game. Students must enter through the Student Lobby (located near KVille) to swipe their student ID for entry.
