DURHAM, N.C.-- Women’s basketball player Amber Henson currently competes for the Blue Devils while also attending the Duke Fuqua School of Business as a graduate student. As the 2015-16 season approaches she is excited and ready to face the realities of being a student-athlete.
Henson has a full schedule as a graduate student. A typical day for her includes morning classes, a quick lunch, classes again for a few more hours, straight to practice and then homework or group case work.
“The class schedule isn't too bad but since we work in six week terms, instead of traditional semesters, the courses move extremely fast.
