Of interest to the study of race relations is the decision of a Christian minority group to segregate itself from other Christian associations by creating a separate student organization.It all began during the spring semester of 1999 when several members of the Gospel Choir decided to found a chapter of Impact ? a national Christian organization geared toward blacks ? at Princeton.

Black or White?

Black or White?

I am multiracial. Or rather, I have no race. My father is a black immigrant ? his family is originally from Jamaica ? and my mother is a white native-born American.

Entire community must contribute to improving Princeton's racial climate

Is there a race problem on this campus? At first glance, the answer seems to be no. Enrollment of minority students is on par with other Ivy League institutions, and members of different ethnic groups have created various organizations for cultural identification and self-expression on campus.

Complexities of complexion

As the academic dean for the junior class, my conversations with students can be wide-ranging. Distress, however, is a common theme.

A discussion long overdue

Why devote two weeks to the subject of race?Because it is one of the most difficult issues we face as a society, and as a university.

Who is Racist?

I have this amazing gift. I have the ability to tell if someone is racist. It's just something that I stumbled upon when I arrived on campus three years ago.

Happy recounting

I didn't want to write about the Florida recount. Really, I didn't. In an ideal world, I would be regaling all of you right now with my take on the true spirit of Thanksgiving ? a spirit that calls, curiously enough, for the giving of thanks.

When bad weeks happen to good people: Some sanity-saving tips

Last week was, to say the least, a very rough week for me. The running and planning of Senior Week, not to mention that whole "academics" thing that keeps getting in my way, have very nearly killed me and the other class officers.

Inaccessible is Unacceptable

My freshman year, I stepped foot on the Princeton campus prepared to encounter a sea of Caucasian, upper-class, preppy faces only to be pleasantly surprised by students from many ethnic, racial and financial backgrounds.The University continuously works on eliminating its non-diverse stereotype, and most members of the community applaud moves in this direction.

Cookie-cutter writing classes won't serve the specific needs of A.B. frosh

As 'Prince' columnist Jeff Wolf '02 rightly pointed out in the Nov. 15 issue, Princeton students should learn to write well.

Will N.J. follow others in trampling telemarketers?

There are few groups of people I rank as abysmally as telemarketers, those incessantly harassing individuals who phone me with a poorly written sales pitch for some product I have no need for.Confronted with the unfortunate reality of being rudely awakened by one of these individuals, I utter a prayer that the conniving businessman who dreamt up the idea of telemarketing spends eternity in the sixth circle of hell ? along with the Baha Men, authors of the current pop song, "Who Let the Dogs Out?"While procrastinating on my JP the other day, I griped to my father about the increasing incidence of these phone calls at Princeton.

Negotiations having failed, it is time for Israel to act decisively

A grimmer and grimmer reality is taking shape in the Middle East. Every day the body count soars higher and higher, and the chances for a real peace become slimmer and slimmer.

'Prince' lacks integrity in inappropriate handling of alleged sexual assaultAs much as it is the responsibility of University publications to inform students of daily occurrences on campus, we feel that in certain cases the 'Prince' goes inappropriately beyond the call of duty.

Controversy in presidential race should not call Electoral College into question

In his Nov. 16 'Prince' editorial, S. Karthick Ramakrishnan GS suggests "modernizing" the United States Constitution, not by pursuing the "minor" change of abolishing the Electoral College, but a "middle-range solution" of changing the internal structure of the United States.
