OPINION

• OPINION: On April 9, Princeton Professor Keith Whittingon was appointed by Biden to his 36-member Commission on the Supreme Court of the United States. Princeton students hope for a meaningful exchange of views: to publish, host debates, and speak with Professor Whittington as the Supreme Court undergoes structural reforms. “This University to which we all belong serves as an ideal place for a rich and complex debate about the future of the Supreme Court.”

PROSPECT

Associate Prospect editor Aster Zhang ’24 sits down with the management team at Olsson’s Fine Foods in Palmer Square to discuss major business decisions, pandemic experiences, and grilled cheese. Zhang writes that Olsson’s has altered the way it serves customers, noting that “since last March, Olsson’s has fleshed out a robust online presence, including virtual classes and a redesigned website.” Though the business did have to make certain changes during the pandemic, Olsson’s remains irresistible — especially since “Cheese is a comfort food,” Adams said, “and it’s what people need right now.”
