Attention sophomores: we're here to help. We at the 'Prince' understand that you're a little stressed out these days, what with studying for orgo exams and trying to figure out which collar(s) to pop when simultaneously wearing three polo shirts. We know that the last thing you want to worry about is deciding on an eating club. So we present you Mr. Bicker Person, who's here to relieve all your fears. Like we said, we're here to help.

The James Stewart '32 Theater is close to capacity. The applause dies as the audience waits for the next writer to read her work. Ruby Pan '06 steps up to the microphone and leans in closely.

We are a media-obsessed nation. We read "Star Tracks" in People Magazine, watch E! Entertainment Television, scan the tabloids, catch up with Regis and Kelly, and we won't deny it. So when camera crews are lingering around Blair Arch, it causes quite a stir among the Princeton undergraduate community. Questions of "who?" "what?" and "where?" fly from Blair to Butler, yet nobody seems to actually know the answers.

Climbing the ever steeper stairs of the U-Store, one encounters black and white photographs of Princeton's current luminaries, the people who shape the public perception of our esteemed institution. It seems most unfortunate, therefore, to leave Rob Kutner '94 out of the ranks of these opinion makers, since his writing position on Comedy Central's "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" puts him in a unique position to influence America's politically conscious, at least among those ages 18 to 30. And now with the publication of the show's collaborative effort, "America: A Citizen's Guide to Government Inaction," he has an opus to give Joyce Carol Oates a run for her money.

Regarding 'Princeton language style: Pequod' (Oct. 7):
(10/06/04 10:00pm)
Every semester we pay an inordinate amount of money for our textbooks, and every semester we fork over an equally ridiculous quantity of dough for those photocopies bound in heinously bright paper known as Pequod packets.

The phenomenon of hyperactive statuary, which has traditionally been limited to the more appropriate realm of imaginative fiction, is turning out to be an acute problem on the Princeton campus. Our monuments of marble, bronze and prestressed concrete will simply not stand still. Now you see 'em, now you don't.

My assignment this reading period was to write an essay about what's going wrong in the Middle East. It's a question that provokes much polemic but little consensus.

Little do passersby know that inside Landau's store on Nassau St. — beyond the sales rack of scarves and sweaters and the model ram — is the nation's only museum dedicated to Albert Einstein. And it's only 120 sq. ft. big.

Last week, Dean of the Faculty David Dobkin issued a report indicating that instructor evaluations — the bubble-sheets distributed by the registrar's office at the end of each term — have steadily risen since the University began keeping records in 1974.

The last faculty meeting was well on its way to establishing a new record for the triathlon of ennui (combined aggregate of paucity of attendance, brevity of duration, and vacuity of content) when it accidentally emerged that Dean Malkiel proposed to place before us, at our next meeting, a mystery agendum of weight. Asked what this might be, she would say only that we would learn soon enough.

What is President Tilghman's vision? Connecting the individual dots of her presidency — the athletics moratorium, skepticism about Greek life, a desire to revamp freshman orientation and so on — I think it's a good one. My guess is she wants to make our campus less clubby, less narrow-minded and more like the open, eclectic place described in this year's admissions viewbook. But it's only a guess, because Tilghman has yet to spell out her view of the big picture. It's high time she did.

In response to Sam Todd's article on Friday (Jan. 9), I want to underscore how important it is for all students to take personal responsibility for race relations on campus. This problem will not solve itself out of neglect.

Forget about George W. Bush, Howard Dean, John Kerry and the other United States presidential hopefuls, because for the next week, only one political race will dominate campus: the USG elections.

I am a senior, and I have a hiding place. It's not near any of my favorite haunts: the Chapel, Café Vivian, the Q and PR sections of Firestone. It's not even my carrel, though I annexed that several weeks ago like a good imperialist, planting the Oregon flag with a perfunctory nod to the natives (two shoddy chairs), already plotting how to undermine the existing political structure, chisel off the cultural detritus of last year's occupants, exploit the resident dust motes, and prepare the land for further conquest by the bibliohordes. Soon one of those chairs will writhe under gluteal oppression . . .
