A welcome to the Class of 2025 from the Editor-in-Chief

Emma Treadway ’22, the 145th Editor-in-Chief of The Daily Princetonian, shares how before she arrived on campus, everyone at Princeton seemed “superhuman, out of reach.” But she soon learned how we’re all just people first and foremost. 

“My professors, though brilliant, went home every day to kids and a dog. My classmates, though ambitious, were secretly asking all the same questions about who these people were, and how they could ever fit in.”  This understanding — that behind all stories are people — guides our work at the ‘Prince,’ Treadway writes. 

She encourages incoming students to remember our shared humanity as they arrive on campus. “Come tell your story, and help others tell theirs.”
