Feminism, porn and dignity

Like any good corporation, Pink Visual is divided into wholesale and retail. The products on offer do not appear to be substantially different. The decor in retail is more overtly Sapphic: not romantic lesbianism in the spirit of the Greeks, but a straightforward backdrop of naked girls licking each other and arching their backs. And Vivas wonders why men are among her best customers?

Editorial: Greek policing going national

National representatives have a responsibility to ensure that Greek life at Princeton represents a safe and responsible social opportunity for all students, and they should increase their involvement with the administration of individual Greek chapters on campus.

Parting shots

If we do successfully fight the fact that it’s easier to whine than to act, then we’ll have something to be proud of. If there’s a moral here, it’s that Princeton is ours, and we forget this at our peril.

No time for a Tea Party

I have yet to see any Tea Party presence or even to hear any students express their support for the movement. The lack of a visible Princeton Tea Party, and the scarcity of protesting in general, reflects the busy nature of Princeton culture.

An irrelevant debate

In a world in which one in five video rentals are pornographic and in which more than one in 10 Internet visits are to porn sites, the question of feminist porn seems marginal, at best.

Why I did it

"Why’d you do it?” “Why rock the boat?” “And if you were going to do it, why now, more than a year later?” “And why did you let them put your name on it?”

Editorial: Split the committee

In order to reduce any perceived bias that may arise under the current system, there should be a group of dedicated investigators, none of whom is allowed to serve on the Honor Committee.

On the liberal arts

Our four years of college mark the beginnings of a meaningful life — they act as both a foundation and an intensive period for thinking.

SCORE, eBay style

I was getting increasingly freaked out as my computer clock clicked over to 7:28. Should I click the enroll button two seconds early at 7:29:58 or wait until it was officially 7:30? What if I didn’t click fast enough to get into the lab I wanted and had to cancel and start the registration for the class all over again?

Precept by choice

The fact is that some students get nothing out of precept, while others benefit greatly. Does the school not trust us to do what is in our own best interest?

Letters to the Editor: April 27, 2010

Brian Zack '72 criticizes the glamorization of smoking and Yoo Jung Kim takes us inside the head of a waitlistee.

Dreaming of Goldman

Students should notice the difference between what actually matters and what only appears to matter.

Friends and family

Princeton has often seemed to me like a sort of big extended family. Like all families, some of the members are a bit odd and a few don’t get along, but for the most part we have enough in common that we generally enjoy each other’s company.

Editorial: Protecting student publications

The Daily Princetonian applauds the vigilance of the staff of The Breeze, James Madison University's student newspaper, for its reasoned resistance to the police’s improperly conducted search of its newsroom.

A case of mistaken identity

It wasn’t until I came to college that I realized that I inhabit an unusual cultural limbo — something I had not been aware of before.
