Unfortunately, a policy that makes it harder for scholarly work to be conducted in countries on the U.S State Department's travel warning list will mean that our work remains largely speculative or, at best, dependent solely on external information.
Readers voice off on the hummus controversy.
Despite other universities’ reticence to follow suit, the University should stay true to the principles it professed four years ago and resist a reimplementation of any early admission option.
Feminism is a school of thought and philosophy that must not be used as a street corner soap box, lest everything it stands for be cheapened or destroyed.
It was only a month or two ago that Governor Chris Christie backed out of New Jersey’s commitment to a new railroad tunnel under the Hudson River, citing the cost (about $3 billion for New Jersey if I recall). I’m certainly not an expert on such matters, but it seems that he could have done better on this decision.
This kind of “earn it yourself” aid is actually just a different — and perhaps worse — kind of loan: one that needs to be paid back immediately and at low campus-job wages.
The country is more likely to listen to a friend than an enemy, to constructive rather than destructive criticism. Let us hope that with this in mind, all sides can come together with constructive solutions to bring peace to the volatile region of the Middle East.
The $45 fine essentially functions as a nuisance fee, and its elimination is unlikely to create significant problems. Ending the policy of nickel-and-diming students through this fee would allow students more time to make informed decisions on their coursework without facing unnecessary pressure from the University.
We believe that only through international pressure will Israelis be able to make the difficult decisions that will ensure Israel’s long-term existence. It is through this kind of effort that South Africans were able to end apartheid, and there is little reason to believe that it would not work just as well in this case.
Thanksgiving doesn’t seem like a hard sell. Turkey, mashed potatoes, cranberries, stuffing, pumpkin pie and the rest are a pretty good spread.
Vote yes on the referendum to provide yourself and fellow students the opportunity to purchase an alternative hummus not connected to the Israeli occupation of the West Bank.
Supporters of the referendum argue that Sabra hummus is connected to human rights violations, but the connection is a weak one.
No one who has sat in my common room could tell me that Princeton students don’t care about the quest for knowledge, not victory, in debate. No one could tell me that grades or cynicism should or can define the Princeton experience. Almost every person I’ve interacted with one-on-one at this school is driven in some way by a love of learning something they are passionate about.
Jesus chose to hang out with his 12 best bros, drinking some wine and enjoying some simple but good food. The fact that the Last Supper was a proper meal was intentional and closely related to the central message of Christianity: A good meal with friends is the basis for the good, holy life.
Even though I have only been here a few months, I want other girls — especially underclassmen — to know that even though it sometimes may not seem like it, there is in fact a thriving feminist community here.
Everybody wants to be a part of the exclusive Indians-at-Princeton club, and of course, everybody wants the quality education that the University promises.
