Letter to the Editor: Martin Shkreli's response to "Disinvite Shkreli (again)"

It was with great interest that I read the “Disinvite Shkreli (again)” column by Crystal Liu ’19 in The Daily Princetonian. Unfortunately, Liu’s uncareful analysis misses the mark. While Liu may feel I am “disgraced” and “vitriolic,” in a brazen display of intellectual dishonesty she fails to mention my distinction as one of the most successful young entrepreneurs in the world.

Continuing the push for inclusive debate

The overwhelming the majority of student responses contradicted these University ideals, as they fiercely criticized and sought to silence the minority views in support of Anderson. Beyond this specific incident, the general campus culture perpetrates a notion that conservative ideas are out of fashion.

Play golf, not war

Seeing the big picture: Diversity in eating clubs

The recent opposition to the USG eating club referendum — a proposal to collect demographic data on club membership — has largely focused on three main aspects: the challenges of implementation, the effect on the student body, and the fear of misinterpreting the cause of the demographics.

Plant forward, literally

Campus Dining is brilliant. When you walk through the buffet, have you noticed that the options are usually ordered in the same way, at every dining hall, at every meal?

Disinvite Shkreli (again)

The “most hated man in America” is coming to Princeton.

I Hope No Prefrosh Read This

Editorial: Expanding and confirming Honor Committee membership

The Board supports increasing the size of the Honor Committee to reduce the burden on individual members and to better preserve institutional knowledge. However, the Board believes that requiring a closed session and supermajority vote of the USG Senate to confirm committee nominees will unduly restrict a transparent and fair confirmation process.

Letter to the Editor: Workers’ message to students

As campus dining staff, we work hard every day to make students feel at home away from their homes. We take a lot of pride in our work and enjoy our jobs in many ways. University students are generally polite, interesting to talk to, and a pleasure to serve. We know that they are under a lot of stress as they study for exams and write papers, and we’re glad to be able to brighten their day with broad smiles and tasty, nourishing meals. We are proud to support University students both physically and emotionally. However, we don’t always feel respected by the University itself.

Why I didn’t attend Preview

When I was choosing colleges five years ago, I consciously decided not to attend Princeton Preview.

On time management: A letter to prefrosh

It takes enormous strength of character to convince yourself that living off adrenaline is not noble. There’s no Princeton award designated for those who lead the most balanced life. You have to be so sure of what’s best for you that when someone asks you to take on another project, you simply say, “I don’t want to do that.”

A Sand-witchhunt

Throw yourself in

As Princeton prepares to welcome the Class of 2021, the latest in a perennial series of the increasingly diverse, well-qualified cohorts, current students — even us post-thesis seniors long removed from the days of admitted-student lanyards and peer academic advising — will be sought out to provide lessons learned and parting words of wisdom to those about to replace us on this campus.

True Story

Letter to the Editor: Fight for workers' rights

Our service workers are essential to the running of the University and deserve not only our praise, but also our respect.

Politicizing USG campaigns

These past weeks, my Facebook feed has been plagued by USG campaign posts. It’s understandable, given the potential social media has these days to spread a political message.

Obsession with creation

From the moment we first enter the FitzRandolph gate to commencement, we Princetonians have an endless supply of work.

Stop lecturing me

For all its prestige, wealth, and resources, Princeton University has much to be desired as a place of education.

The myth of the millennial problem

As Princeton students who will become the leaders of this generation, it is time we reexamined the many cultural attitudes surrounding the behaviors of millennials.
