As graduating seniors, we have been repeatedly told the University’s unofficial motto over four years: “In the Nation’s Service and in the Service of All Nations.” Before we walk through the FitzRandolph Gate, we wanted to reflect on why service is such a valuable part of a University education. This column aims to highlight the importance of civic engagement in the lives of participating students.

As was widely reported in January, students this year have for the first time figured out en masse how to view their supposedly-confidential admission records, thanks to a loophole in Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act discovered by several students at Stanford. Current students are now able to see “written assessments that admission officers gave of applicants, the numerical scores those officers assigned them on a range of factors,” and even sometimes notes from when their file was discussed the by admission committee.

“That ball went right past the head of Foote!” Seton Hall’s radio guy said after one of Seton Hall’s players lined a ball right back at the Tiger baseball team’s junior left-handed pitcher Tyler Foote. Everyone in the press box laughed at the play on words, including myself.

On a Saturday night in October 2011, Michael Stockwell, a self-proclaimed open-air preacher and the cofounder of Cross Country Evangelism, stationed himself on a sidewalk on Prospect Avenue. Mounted on an amplifier in between Ivy and Cottage Clubs and surrounded by a dozen of his fellow evangelical ministers, Stockwell preached and handed out Gospel tracts for the span of one hour as students wandered past.

University students have recently formed a grassroots campaign called Ban the Box NJ in hopes of mobilizing political support for the NJ Opportunity to Compete Act, according to the campaign’s website.

It’s no secret that we lead busy lives here at Princeton. And though many students try nobly to engage with the world beyond the FitzRandolph Gates, it’s easy to shut out the issues that don’t seem to affect us directly. I’d like to take this space to challenge the idea that mass incarceration doesn’t affect us, and to advocate for the New Jersey Opportunity to Compete Act, informally known as Ban the Box.

After receiving a zoning ordinance approval from the Borough to move the Dinky station 460 feet farther south this past December in order to construct a new building for the Lewis Center for the Arts, the University submitted a letter to the Princeton Planning Board outlining the project’s proposed layout at the beginning of February.

Margarito was beaten so badly in the fight that he had to go to the hospital directly afterward, where they found him to have suffered a fractured orbital bone. Margarito is scheduled for surgery Tuesday.

Last year, the view from the back of a crowded lecture hall was fairly predictable: a few computer screens opened to Microsoft Word blinking pitifully in a sea of Facebook newsfeeds and photo albums.

Before I go any further, I need to clarify: I don’t like using the terms “liberal” and “conservative” in contexts other than “a liberal dose of vinegar” or “a conservative investment strategy.” I would support a ban on both these words for the next quarter-century until they are washed of their various — often contradictory — meanings and can once more be applied with precision and utility. If both George W. Bush and Barry Goldwater are conservatives, then the word seems to have been stretched beyond its breaking point. Similarly, I can imagine John Stuart Mill rolling over in his grave at some policies being advanced under “liberalism.” And when conservatives start calling themselves “classical liberals,” or when some Democrats qualify themselves as “economically conservative” (and hence in line with classical liberalism), it is clear that most of the useful meaning is derived from the qualifying adverb, not the lame-duck adjective lingering at the end of the phrase.

Don’t get me wrong: I have nothing against prospective applicants and students coming to visit campus. The school needs these applicants to compensate for the seniors graduating this spring, and we, the students, thrive upon a constant supply of fresh meat that we can teach, haze and otherwise manipulate. It’s a mutual concern.

Professors always tell students to think outside the box because creativity and individuality keep them from being confined to any one space. In hockey, coaches have the same stance, though differently worded: Stay out of the box!

Prince Moulay Hicham Benabdallah '85, third in line to the throne of Morocco, is smart, urbane, charming, articulate and highly educated. He is also a passionate, outspoken democrat and reformer. This has gotten him into all sorts of trouble.

At which elite school do students wear robes to exams, classmates toast each other with Madeira wine before precept and students conduct elaborate rituals when the clocks go back? No, it's not Hogwarts, but Oxford, Princeton's peer across the pond.
