Perkins Service Ties Duke, D.C. [Stuart Basefsky], in Duke Dialogue, April 20, 1990, vol.4, no. 42, pages 1 and 6

Stuart Basefsky initiated relations with Congressional Quarterly (CQ) for public policy purposes in 1985. In the Fall of 1988, his efforts resulted in Duke becoming the first university to incorporate the use of the Washington Alert Service (CQ) for campus-wide access. Stuart became a member of the Advisory Board of the Washington Alert Service and continued in this capacity on behalf of Duke until his departure to Cornell University in 1993.
