Columnist Julia Chaffers argues that the International Olympic Committee undermines its claim to values like equality by silencing athletes taking politically-motivated actions.
Today, despite the intention that Clio Hall be used for Whig-Clio, we see the society residing solely in Whig Hall, with no ability to use Clio. I believe it is time Whig-Clio takes back Clio Hall.
In my interview with your reporter, James Anderson, I misspoke on one matter.
Facts, I do not deny, have their place and usefulness. But the liberals who are repudiated by a disillusioned public do not get to lay claim to them perpetually, and even where they’re right, they’d be well-advised to check their pretentious attitude — if not for the sake of Trump, then for the persuasion of those who regard him in a positive light.
Since the emergence of the new coronavirus in China and declaration of a global health emergency, we have taken the situation seriously and have redoubled our efforts to fulfill a core responsibility we have as an administration: to ensure the health and safety of every member of the University community.
“Too much to read and too little time” is probably the answer for a good many students. We begin our courses with romantic notions of learning, discussing world-changing ideas, growing deeper and more nuanced in our understanding of ourselves and the world. Soon, however, we are in survival mode, simply trying to keep up with — or at least not fall too far behind in — our work because we’ve got too much to read and too little time.
We are all in this together, regardless of our backgrounds. We never attempted to be negligent in our quarantine efforts, but we will not endure any inhumane treatment that no one in this society deserves.
My great discovery of my first semester of college, thus, has been that nothing should impede learning for the sake of learning, not even finals.
Given all that’s been said about the “unforgiving nature” of the #MeToo movement and “cancel culture,” comparatively little attention has focused on the forgetful nature of the body politic, with regards to sexual assault allegations. The Fairfax saga is just one story that fits into a larger pattern.
Hundreds of students, both current and former, have expressed their enthusiasm and support for our cause, and many more have vented their discontent online over Charter’s decision to switch to Bicker. Students on this campus are becoming increasingly vocal: They are calling for a Princeton where students can find community and break bread irrespective of wealth or social status.
At the University, where the annual rotation of students makes it difficult to appreciate, much less achieve, lasting change, the ‘Prince’ empowers us to chart this institution’s past, present, and future. In the coming year, we welcome the challenge and opportunity of telling that story.
Thank you all for your continued support to the organization, and I leave you with this: keep reading, keep learning, keep questioning, and keep growing.
Princeton has little to show for its experiment in “grade deflation,” except inflating grades that continue to lag behind those of its peer institutions.
Despite this lofty goal, something is changing about the way we speak of one another.
If our own administration could warm the outside as readily as the inside, why would they do otherwise?
The University prides itself with leveraging one of the largest endowments in the country — and the political power it carries — to the benefit of its students. What is keeping them from implementing a plan for reparations?
Social sorting isn’t entirely bad because it’s a sign that people are forming long-term friendships. But there’s a growing demand for the kind of freshman year opportunities to freely meet fellow students outside of the current — sometimes stuffy — networks.
We, the undersigned students, alumni, and affiliates of Princeton University, recognize, respect, and stand in solidarity with peaceful protests by students of Jamia Millia Islamia and Aligarh Muslim University against the passing of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) of 2019.
As we hope for this violence to come to an end and for justice to be achieved, we stand in solidarity and lend all our support to the students fighting fearlessly on the streets.
This recent presidential race was politicized unnecessarily. Feeding a campaign off of students’ gaps in knowledge about USG is not an ethical maneuver; it, in fact, parallels what is wrong with the American political system today.
