Why do two-thirds of your summer research wages go to Princeton, anyway?

The income that students earn from employment is not “miscellaneous.” So Princeton must decide: Does it want its students — all of them, not only those who can afford it — to be able to work on the important research happening at Princeton, or be forced to go home?

Seniors deserve better than Jay Shetty

We are writing to express our strong disapproval of the selection of Jay Shetty as the 2025 Class Day speaker. We deserve better than a self-help guru and repeated plagiarist who runs a “school” that an expert claims exhibits “similar patterns” to a multi-level marketing scheme.

The CPUC must not gut its Judicial Committee

Ending the Judicial Committee’s jurisdiction over initial complaints would embolden abuses of power, allowing the administration to evade accountability for University rule violations without the pressure of student and faculty authority.

Princeton, let’s adopt a digital prox

To prevent pointless replacement and lockout charges, maximize convenience, and create better access to meals and facilities, Princeton should follow the precedent set by some of its peers and adopt a digital prox system.

What is a Princeton degree really for?

So what, in the end, is a Princeton degree really for? I take a more moderate view: Students should prioritize earning potential — unless they feel irresistibly called to something else.

If there’s one survey you fill out this year, make it the Year End Assessment

The University cares about collecting good data — but it needs to centralize its efforts.

In defense of ChatGPT

Complete avoidance of AI is not a solution to the issue Johnson rightfully points out. Avoidance merely leaves us ignorant, standing still in a moving world. On the contrary, Princeton students should discuss the use of AI tools in education with honesty and open-mindedness and consider it a novel tool as opposed to a morally objectionable scourge.

Who’s self-censoring at college now?

Conservatives today must choose their cause: free speech or authoritarianism? Throughout history, the only leaders who cheered the downfall of universities and intellectualism were authoritarians interested in suppressing political dissent.

In an age of anti-intellectualism, embrace the humanities

Expanding the humanities is imperative because they train students to recognize the value of knowledge regardless of where and whether it is applied — something sorely needed given the state of American culture.

Amplify the student voice in the Faculty-Student Committee on Discipline

Having a student-centered disciplinary process that understands root issues will allow for a more empathetic, fair adjudication of an inherently difficult process.

Workers will suffer under Trump. Let’s implement a living wage.

Our service workers are real people with the same fundamental needs as our student population. If we can afford to give our students hundreds of millions in aid, we can surely afford to pay our staff members — who are equally crucial to the Princeton community — a decent and fair wage.

Singing a new song for Westminster Choir College

In the face of rising housing insecurity and the court-mandated construction quota, the municipality must take advantage of the recent availability of Westminster campus with affordable housing in mind.

Princeton needs to take academic breaks seriously

If the University is serious about fixing the mental health crisis on-campus, they must develop preventative and proactive solutions alongside reactive ones. That means taking student well-being and rest seriously. Academic breaks where students have time to recoup from weeks of stress must be as restful as possible.

5Terra Advisory must distance itself from human rights abuses

It’s clear that 5Terra is making the wrong choice by failing to fully investigate their own plans and attempting to build a talent pipeline between students and PIF companies, putting Princeton’s values of service and ethical leadership at risk by wading into possible involvement in human rights abuses.
