About this listen

 Hey Blue Devils, it's Jenny with your Campus Update for November 3 through November 10. Let's get you set for the week—fast. First up—Energy Week kicks off today and runs through Friday. Don't miss the 2025 Energy Conference on Wednesday at the Fuqua School of Business. It's a prime opportunity to network and learn about the future of energy. Next—DEMAN Weekend is happening this Friday and Saturday. Join fellow students and alumni for panels and workshops focused on careers in entertainment, media, and the arts. Events start at 3 p.m. on Friday at the Duke Entertainment, Media & Arts Network. And—if you're eyeing a summer internship, the National Park Service Business Plan Internship info session is tonight at 8 p.m. It's virtual, so you can join from anywhere. What a game on Saturday! Our football team edged out Clemson 46-45 in a nail-biter. Quarterback Darian Mensah led an 11-play, 94-yard drive, capped by Nate Sheppard's 3-yard touchdown run with just 40 seconds left. Then, a gutsy two-point conversion sealed the win. This marks our first victory at Clemson's Death Valley since 1980. Looking ahead, men's basketball faces Texas in the inaugural Dick Vitale Invitational on Tuesday at the Spectrum Center in Charlotte. Tip-off time is still TBA, so stay tuned. Energy Week isn't just for policy wonks. There's a clean energy tech innovation showcase featuring startups and student groups. It's a great chance to see cutting-edge projects and maybe even find your next collaboration. On the food front, the campus food trucks are rolling out some fall specials this week. Keep an eye out for pumpkin spice treats and hearty soups to warm you up between classes. This week's weather is looking pleasant with mostly sunny skies and highs in the upper 60s. However, Sunday brings a chance of rain and a possible thunderstorm in the afternoon. So, if you're planning outdoor activities, Saturday might be your best bet. Your move: Register for Energy Week events now to secure your spot. Some sessions have limited capacity, so don't wait. That's your quick Campus Update. I'm Jenny—catch you next Monday morning. Tap follow on your podcast app so you never miss a beat.
