Princeton can find the cash to weather the storm

To be complacent in silence, or even worse compliant in action, is a disservice to the guiding mission of education that underpins us all. It is essential that we take steps to ensure that federal funding does not constrain the ability of institutions to stand in defense of education across the nation.

Princeton should call itself a sanctuary city

It would not be an exaggeration to say that Princeton already effectively functions as a “sanctuary city.” So why does the town continue to distance itself from the title and opt for the distinction of “welcoming city” in its stead?

Princeton isn’t the problem, elitism is

By putting too much emphasis on Ivy League schools themselves as the proxy for “educated elites," we risk losing sight of the larger systems of elitism that drive the Ivy League and so much more.

In addition to other benefits, a system could primarily work to channel institutional money and resources back into the surrounding township under an organized system of federal jurisdiction and oversight.”

Campus is isolated: Be the voice that speaks out

“Although today’s encampment represents a significant and monumental stride in campus activism, the culture of the Orange Bubble must fundamentally shift in order to ensure long term change.”

Change the University presidency, not Eisgruber.

"Although Eisgruber’s approach to discourse is sensibly structured to avoid such ‘traps’, he often treats discussion with students with the same caution as a Congressional ambush."
