Duke Official Apologizes for Lack of ‘Civility’ in Parking Dispute as Sit-In Over Racial Issues Continues

A top official at Duke University issued a public apology Monday afternoon, as protesters refused to leave a building until three administrators have been terminated and other demands met.  Tallman Trask III, Duke’s executive vice president, was accused by a contract employee of hitting her with his car while she was trying to enforce parking restrictions before a football game in 2014, and calling her a racial slur.
