Due perhaps to its proximity to downtown Durham, East Campus has often housed our public and civic service organizations. Trinity students helped to stock Durham's woodpile for the poor, and during World War I, parts of the campus were planted with food crops. During World War II, Woman's College students formed the College Organization for General Service (COGS) which assisted Duke and Durham in the war effort. Now the Community Service Center has its offices in the Crowell Building, and continues the traditional town-gown cooperation between Duke and Durham.
East Campus has seen the full spectrum of collegiate life and continues its role as a vital part of Duke University as well as a reminder of its roots. Now members of the incoming first-year class are invited to contribute their experiences to the ongoing history of Duke's original campus.
