While I’d like to say that winter is in fact the most polarizing season, because that’s an awesome pun, I can’t deny that people have many more diverging opinions about fall.
The ramblings of a poor soul stuck on campus over the summer.
New courses came out this week, so you probably spent all the time you should have been working on your current classes looking at new classes.
Even though midterms are all anyone can talk about right now, let’s all shut up for a second andlook forward to the approaching nationally-sacred holiday: Spring Break.
If you're like me, these Roommate Test posts have taken over your Facebook. That app is probably a data mining site, and I live in a single, so I made some more accurate results that you can post on your Timeline so you can be cool too!
It has come to my attention that some people on campus think squirrels are "cute" and "cuddly." I am here to rectify this error.
Thinking of whether or not to P/D/F that nagging class of yours? Use this handy checklist to predict your academic future: ? You cry yourself to sleep more often than you already do. ? The class lacks an attractive person to hold your attention. ? You haven’t done any of the problem sets. ? You avoid lecture like the plague. ? You avoid precept like Ebola. ? You have recurring nightmares about your professor. ? The class makes you want to go to Yale instead. ? You’ve gotten 100+ upvotes on a yak that complained about the class. ? You want to restore your sanity (at least a little bit), but you don’t want to disappoint your family by dropping the class. And there you have it, folks.
Class of 2017:as newly-minted sophomores, we now find ourselves annoyed by freshman. But let’s face it—we envy them.
1. The Zombie— Each and every step seems like torture. You feel for these people because they wereclearly up all night a) eating, b) procrastinating and c) realizing at 4 a.m.
The impending doom of midterms week is here and at the end of this long dark abysmal tunnel awaits one of the best nights of the Princeton school year … Princetoween!
While former University President Shirley Tilghman takes a well-deserved break from ruling over the Orange Bubble, her soul sister, Hillary Clinton, made headlines when she became a grandmother this September.

As a freshman on campus, you have one main goal: to not look like a freshman oncampus. Unfortunately, even as a newcomer to campus, it usually isn’t hard topick the frosh out of the pack.
Ah, Yik Yak: a repository for the mental barf of the masses, with anonymity providing an invitation for people to broadcast thoughts they would normally keep to themselves, and for good reason.
Welcome (back) to your den, Tigers! As everyone slips into the Orange Bubble andwaymore orange clothes than ever deemed possible, here are seven things that you’re likely to hear around campus (the number seven may or may not be an allusion to a certain wizard boy whose name is thrown around here and there in our magical home). But beware — while what you see at Princeton may be what you get, what you heardefinitelyisn’t.
...But time is money, and apparently you have to have a lot of that if you want a ticket.Check out this video of the insane line this morning for getting a ticket to the Dalai Lama's talk in Princeton over Fall Break.
Princeton has such a plethora of programs and such good financial aid that odds are you and/or 437 of your closest friends have studied or had an internship abroad this summer.
Apparently the Princeton Terrace Club listserv is a good place to go to if you are trying to raise funds for the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies, a group that conducts research using a bunch of different drugs. Ben Shechet ’09 — who works for MAPS, as the organization calls itself — emailed the Terrace listserv on Friday looking to raise $50,000 for one of the association's projects. While MAPS promotes research using substances such as LSD, Salvia and Ayahuasca, Shechet was pitching “MDMA-assisted psychotherapy,” a treatment the organization wants to get approved by the Food and Drug Administration for post-traumatic stress disorder. MDMA is also known as ecstasy. MAPS bills itself as “the only organization in the world funding clinical trials of MDMA-assisted psychotherapy.” MAPS is a nonprofit organization founded in 1986 that seeks to establish marijuana and psychedelics as prescription drugs and educate the public about those substances. Connecting drugs and Terrace got Shechet really sentimental. "Without Terrace, there’s an exactly zero percent chance that I’d be where I am today, so it’s truly a delight to be able to connect the work I’m doing now with the place that helped me find it," he wrote. We wonder why.
You silently scrutinize the minute hand of the clock. As if its goal is to mock you, it ticks slower and slower, as though time itself has ceased to exist.It is not until your boss asks you to fetch yet another cup of coffee at the internship you sacrificed your summer (and your soul) for that you finally snap and crumple into a sobbing mess as you remember the loving embrace of the Orange Bubble. Prox brings you an appreciation of all things Old Nassau offers when the real world just isn’t quite cutting it. 1.Food, food, glorious food Yes, you’ve always complained about the ‘terrible’ food in the dining halls, but let’s face it, visiting your friends taking summer courses at their respective schools, digesting your mother’s new dinner “experiment” and having survived Reunions weekend on nothing but a jar of peanut butter have made you realize that we’ve got it pretty good!
Whether you're a PTLing senior or a freshman looking to plan out your next three years, Prox brings you the definitive list of things to do at Princeton before you graduate. 1.
11:18 a.m. You’re awake! It only took two snoozes, and you can enjoy this beautiful Sunday — by staying inside and cleaning.
