I completely missed this whole controversy last week, but Grace Wang, a Duke freshwoman from China, made national news when she tried to broker mediation between the pro-Tibetan and the pro-Chinese protest factions on campus. Since then she's had death threats, her parents have gone into hiding, and her parents' home in China has been vandalized—she's no longer going back this summer.

She had an op-ed talking about the experience in the Washington Post last Sunday.
