Dame's Chicken and Waffles. Ughhh I'm going to be dreaming of it for weeks, haha...

My mom is living in Durham at the moment so she took me to a bunch of places - also recommend Cocoa Cinnamon, Rise, Scratch, Rose's, and Fullsteam brewery. Everything was great! She also loves this place called Saltbox but it was closed when I was there :( We had BBQ in Chapel Hill but I'm sure there are top-notch places in Durham too.

Some notable Durham BBQ:

Q-Shack (probably the main one you'll hear recommended, pretty close to where most Duke Law students live)
The Pit (more of a sit-down, cloth napkins place; also has a location in Raleigh)
Picnic (probably splits the difference between Q-Shack and The Pit)
Backyard BBQ Pit (looks very hole-in-the-wall but excellent)
Blue Note Grill (this is for people who like ribs; has live music pretty much every night)

Prob not going, since fiancee and I have a few options that make more sense for life/ partnership/ his MBA options. Not definite yet bc Im just starting to hear back from the other schools and he's still interviewing, but not looking great for Durham. Beautiful campus though - would definitely recommend everyone visit!

Not yet, but I did RSVP for ASW the first day we were notified so maybe that's it?

Between 25th and Median for both LSAT & GPA, MA URM (which helps). I was admitted super early in the cycle so another possibility for getting one early perhaps.

out of money? no. apparently it doesn't matter when you interview at Duke, it won't lessen or improve your chances at money.

Anyone know if Duke has a program where you can stay with students during ASW, and if so, how to utilize it?

I'm not sure whether there's an official program, but you could make a post in the Duke Law Class of 2020 Facebook page, message a current student if you know any, or ask recruiting about it. A current student has already made a post in our Duke Law Students Facebook group on behalf of an admitted student for this purpose, and I know people have been hosted by current students in previous years, too.

Once you register and indicate you want to sit in on a class on Thursday, they'll send you a link to sign up for one

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
