Duke University is getting a lot of attention for all the wrong reasons from the hit HBO show The White Lotus.
The popular series, set in a luxury hotel in Thailand for its third season, features a wealthy family, two of whom are Duke alumni. But the father, played by actor Jason Isaacs, can hardly enjoy the lush surroundings since he’s been implicated in a money-laundering scheme and is being investigated by the FBI, jeopardizing his family’s high-rolling lifestyle.
