Now that the construction of new Butler and the renovations in Forbes are complete, it is time to return to offering storage to all students.
Nothing in the code would prevent an economist from weighing in on any public issue of the day while also garnering a retainer from, say, the Koch Brothers or the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations, but it would say that full disclosure must be part of every public message.
As leaders in our eating clubs, we would like to take this Pride Week to recommit and reaffirm our constant goal of ensuring that people of all backgrounds, experiences and orientations have a safe and fun outlet in all of the eating clubs.
For every narrative of an Israeli running to a bomb shelter, there exists a parallel anecdote of an innocent Palestinian civilian family fleeing from their home with minutes’ notice to escape an Israeli airstrike, or a college student living in Nablus who is withheld passage through a checkpoint to attend university in Birzeit.
The case against nuclear power is simple: it is expensive to build a nuclear power plant. Finland is one of the few countries currently constructing a new nuclear plant. The project was supposed to cost 3.7 billion euros but has already incurred an additional cost of 2.7 billion euros. The case for nuclear power is more subtle.
Princeton is a fascinating, quirky and fun place, and you cannot experience all it has to offer in four years, much less in one weekend. These suggestions will, however, hopefully help you see a side of Princeton that you didn’t hear about in Richardson Auditorium.
The population of Princeton Borough was roughly 13,400 at the last census. The University’s undergraduate population consisted of roughly 5,100 students.

Everyone is entitled to free speech, convicted cop-killer or otherwise. But it is another matter to afford someone a prestigious platform in an academic discussion or elevate him or her to celebrity status.
I appreciate the urgency and analysis our USG president brought to the perception of men on campus. I also believe this point is close to irrelevant in light of the main problem — that women on campus feel, for whatever reason, that their energies would be better spent on activities other than leadership positions.
The Editorial Board debates whether certificates should be indepedent of departments.

If an unelected committee whose membership is a secret dictated to all parents what their children are allowed to know and see, would that worry you? Would you feel like your liberties are being infringed upon? Though this scenario might sound like a feat worthy of Communist Party of the Soviet Union, I am, in fact, talking about the Motion Picture Association of America’s current stranglehold over movie ratings. While the institutionalized exclusion of teenagers from the consumption of art is problematic in itself, I will argue that the MPAA’s peculiar choices of which content to restrict further exacerbate the issue.
