Camel, camel, camel, camels are cool.

Why is there a camel in front of the chemistry building? Who donated it, what is its significance and why is there no plaque telling us this? Thank you for all your hard work, eh.

ANSWER PERSON RESPONDS: Actually, the camel and friend are closer to BioSci. Appropriate positioning, as the statue honors physiologist Knut Schmidt-Nielsen. Get the whole story at http://www.dukemagazine.duke.edu/alumni/dm11/spotlight.html.
