Princeton students are preparing to set up their own “Gaza Solidarity Encampment,” according to documents first obtained by the National Review and independently verified by The Daily Princetonian, following high-profile encampments at Columbia University, Yale University, and other college campuses that have resulted in student arrests. No tents have been erected in the Nassau Hall area — a focal point for previous sit-ins on campus — at time of publication. The documents did not specify a timeline for when the encampment might begin.

While I am only a first-year photographer for The Daily Princetonian, I have already taken dozens of photos of Nassau Hall. Frequently I have passed by a print copy of the ‘Prince’ or opened the app only to be greeted by one of my own stock photos above an Opinion column or a News article. Indeed, the building has become a stand-in for a photo of the school administration, or more abstract events such as an antisemitism investigation, the admission of the Class of 2028, or even the recent earthquake that struck campus. These stock photos can be used as a visual shorthand for Princeton as a whole, including the school’s reputation of existing within an “Orange Bubble” that separates campus from the “real world.” By this logic, if nothing worth photographing ever happens on campus, another photo of Nassau Hall will do.
While Princeton has a reputation of apathy towards activism, how activism is practiced on campus cannot be distilled to a monolith. This special supplement from The Daily Princetonian examines the full spread of assumptions about activism on Princeton’s campus. Together, these stories explain how Princeton has balanced two identities — a hub for activist energy and a culture of indifference.
An April 23 email from Dean of the Graduate School Rodney Priestley informed graduate students that the University had entered into a stipulated election agreement with the United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America (UE), marking the official first step towards a graduate student union. Princeton is the only Ivy League school that does not currently have a recognized graduate student union.
Princeton Pro-Life experiences resurgence in the 2023-24 academic year: Your Daily ‘Prince’ Briefing
This past Monday, April 22, was Earth Day. Since the very first Earth Day in 1970, students have used this day to celebrate the environment and demand action from powerful institutions on the climate crisis. The day has brought attention to environmental issues on college campuses, including at Princeton, from its inception. We, as Sunrise Princeton co-coordinators, celebrate how Earth Day has been a unifying force for the mainstream environmental movement. But we’re not satisfied with how Earth Day demonstrations have been co-opted by greenwashing campaigns and have kept the climate movement siloed from other liberatory struggles. That’s why Sunrise Princeton partnered with a coalition of organizers to cast off old frameworks this Earth Day and to demand that Princeton lead both in stopping actions that contribute to the climate crisis and in building climate justice in its community.
In 2016, Jonathan Tenenbaum ’25 was involved in a nearly fatal skiing accident. Now, he is a premedical student, with a goal of attending medical school that he attributes, in part, to his experience as a pediatric patient.
“I was first introduced to [fencing] through an episode of iCarly, with The Fencin’ Bensons,” épée fencer Hadley Husisian ’27 told The Daily Princetonian. “It’s pretty iconic among fencers just because it’s like that or The Parent Trap, or [how] Pirates of the Caribbean is pretty much the sole reason anyone had ever even heard of the sport.”
The Princeton Pro-Life Club (PPL) has experienced a revival over the course of the past academic year. The group has hosted over 16 events this year — including speaker events, dinners, and trips — and has an 89-person membership on their GroupMe.

PSRJ celebrates condom dispenser launch: Your Daily ‘Prince’ Briefing
On Monday, April 22 at 12 p.m., climate protestors from the Sunrise Princeton organization organized on Frist North Lawn for their Earth Day protest. The protest was held to draw attention to the group's list of demands for the University, which include an amalgamation of progressive causes including worker’s rights and the conflict in Israel and Palestine.
In SPI 499: Making an Exoneree, students have no papers, problem sets, readings, or exams. They just work to exonerate wrongfully imprisoned people. Students in the class “spend an intensive semester as investigative journalists, documentarians, and social justice activists.” As an action-centered class, SPI 499 is a testament to the fact that civic engagement is something that can be incorporated into our everyday learning.
Following two years of advocacy for increased condom accessibility, Princeton Students for Reproductive Justice (PSRJ) celebrated the launch of condom dispensers around campus with a party in Campus Club on Friday, April 19. The event capped off PSRJ’s second annual “Sex Ed week,” a week of events for advocacy and education on safe-sex practices.
In an exciting weekend of golf, the Princeton men’s team attempted to become repeat Ivy League Champions at the Watchung Valley Golf Club in Watching, New Jersey. Yet after a back-and-forth battle, the Tigers fell just short, settling for second place behind the Yale Bulldogs.

Just a couple weeks ago, Princeton saw a new cafe added to its long list of breakfast spots: J.S. Foodies Tokyo, a Japanese brunch place specializing in “kiseki pancakes,” or Japanese soufflé pancakes. I had the pleasure of visiting the small location just next to Princeton Record Exchange to get breakfast and see if they are worth the trip down Tulane St.
