Ninth Street
From the unofficial Duke TIP Wiki
Ninth Street is a popular commerce district in Durham, near the Duke East campus. Its relative wholesomeness and convenient offerings of food, supplies, and other items makes it ideal for TIP students. 4th year privileges allow 4th year students to travel to Ninth Street in groups of three or more during free time. It is also a popular activity and RAG Night event, seeing as how its food is not nearly as bad as the Union's.
"One time, on 9th Street, this homeless man kept hitting on me..." Sometimes the people you meet on Ninth Street are pretty shady. It is not rare to meet panhandlers or strange (possibly drunk or high) men who may try to engage you in conversation (or ask for high fives). The benches in front of Francesca's are a common gathering place for smokers. If you go to Ninth Street during the day then you generally won't come across such people.
