Past actions of the Virginia Democratic leadership have called into question their ability to lead and dredged up a long history of discrimination, hatred, and racial and sexual violence.
There is a large yet unrecognized gap of guidance regarding future, planned pregnancies -- and how to incorporate those pregnancies into the lives the University subconsciously encourages its students to lead. A sub-department of Career Services dedicated to advising students on how to include family planning into their career considerations would allow students to work within already-understood paradigms.
Most people scoff at this overplayed cliché. While the recommendation may lack originality, I find it valuable.
It may seem selfish to schedule time to explicitly not to do work, but it’s just giving you both the opportunity and motivation to raise your future productivity. More importantly, you become happier.
When we put people who write very well in classes with people who haven’t written academically or struggle for whatever other reason, we thwart true scholarly progress. Is it really so radical to require everyone to take a PDF-only writing course?
As an Asian, I would love to see an Asian-American giving the State of the Union address someday. Nonetheless, I wouldn’t automatically vote for the Asian-American candidate in this election.
There are times when we just have to make do with what is available to us at the given moment — so while it will never be an easy decision to cancel classes, we should not act as if switching a day of classes for recorded lectures and a bit of rescheduling for labs is not worth the safety such a cancellation ensures.
The Ivy Club takes seriously its commitment to the confidentiality of its admissions process and the privacy of its members and guests.
Social media platforms strip people of their multidimensionality. Without the face-to-face interaction, the inherent humanity in all of us is often invisible on the social media platform.
Street Week, as the name suggests, is a time to explore Street-wide. There is a space for every student at Princeton who wishes to join a club. While registration for selective clubs is limited to a max of two by the time constraints of the Bicker process, the ICC wanted to expand awareness about opportunities for open club exploration.
The failure to label these incidents racist, the choice to instead tiptoe around it, to hedge their language, effectively excuses the offenders. In doing so, the media gives cover to the offenders, failing to condemn their acts with the strength necessary to truly bring change.
What these supporters are missing is that the issue concerns homophobia and transphobia, not the religious devotion of public figures. Taking an anti-LGBTQ+ belief and calling it religious does not make it any less malicious or any more legitimate, and it serves only to distract from what is really being debated.
The astute visitor would realize that important parts of Princeton’s history are not reflected in its campus, as they often are at other universities.
The data shows not only that students of certain concentrations dominate particular eating clubs but also that members of certain eating clubs dominate entire departments — including some of Princeton’s largest.
If I could give any advice to sophomores, I would tell them to see through the hazy moral hypocrisy and insincerity of Bicker.
Bicker is often presented as a socially meritocratic process, but it’s different for athletes.
To evaluate The Daily Princetonian against the University, the Board circulated a 10-question survey to the entire staff, which is comprised of undergraduate students. Approximately two-thirds of the staff responded to the survey. By closely studying the results, we have identified where the ‘Prince’ lags behind, and we have developed plans to rectify these shortcomings.
I am grateful for the opportunity to have served as editor-in-chief, and I am excited to see Chris Murphy ’20 lead the 143rd Board.
Checking the temperature of race relations both on and off campus only when a group of white nationalists is encroaching is not enough. Condemning white nationalism then becomes too easy.
In his Jan. 6 opinion piece in The Daily Princetonian, Jon Ort ’21 underscores the importance of academic freedom that is the lifeblood of the University, but incorrectly suggests that Google’s recently announced plans to open an artificial intelligence research lab in Princeton undercuts that freedom.
