CLUB Q VIGIL: On Thursday, Dec. 1, the Princeton Graduate Student Government (GSG) and Intersecting Queer Identities (IQI)/Queer Graduate Caucus (QGC) hosted a vigil behind the Fountain of Freedom mourning the victims of the Nov. 19 Club Q Shooting in Colorado Springs. Amari Tankard, the GSG Diversity Equity and Inclusion Chair and organizer of the vigil emphasizes, “Our community deserves to live, our community deserves joy and that was stolen from many of us.” Audience members also shared their thoughts and experiences. An anonymous attendee says, “I am honored to be part of the queer community because more than any other group on the planet we fight hate and negativity with joy and laughter.”

The Editorial Board encourages students to vote for Stephen Daniels ’24 for USG President in the upcoming winter elections. Daniels showed his trustworthiness as he played an important role in expanding the Pay with Points program, and his plans about upperclass student dining and ways to increase student happiness appear the most realistic, the Board argues. Additionally, the Board calls on students to vote ‘yes’ on the referendum regarding gender-neutral bathrooms, which will be a “significant step forward in improving bathroom accessibility and inclusivity for transgender and gender-nonconforming students.” Online voting will begin Monday, Dec. 5 at 12 p.m. and will end Wednesday, Dec. 7 at 12 p.m.

Looking toward next season, Head Coach Dustin Litvak said, “This is just a launching point, and we will continue to compete at the highest levels and work to win a national championship.”
