After Andrei Iosivas ’23 completed his first season at Princeton, he met with football head coach Bob Surace ’90.
Room draw came to a close on April 10 after upperclass draw ended. After the draw, only quads remained, leaving many groups unable to draw into a room. This year, only 20 room draw groups for the Class of 2026 stayed exactly the same. The Daily Princetonian examined how draw groups changed from last year to this current one.
Princeton’s campus hosts a diverse range of classroom environments, from lecture halls with projection technologies to seminar rooms with round tables.

In recognition of this truth, Princeton should encourage professors to return to disseminating their reading through Pequod course packets.
