The Princeton Latin American Student Association (PLASA) recently went through a restructuring process that saw their board of 10 people transformed into a central team composed of 42 people.

With many students and staff going home or on trips over break, groups such as athletes; first-generation, low-income (FLI) students; and international students often remain on campus.

Earlier this year, a proposal submitted to the University’s Faculty Committee was approved, changing Princeton’s terminology from “certificates” to “minors” to match the vernacular of other higher institutions.

The Daily Princetonian’s analysis of Google Trends revealed which University professors have the highest public profile. The ‘Prince’ uses a scale of a professor’s public profile which uses their Google search results over the past 13 years, scaled to the average number of searches for President Christopher Eisgruber ’83 in the same period of time, colloquially known as Bosworth scores. For example, a faculty member with a Bosworth score of five has been searched an average of five times as much as Eisgruber has over the course of the past 13 years. Many of the faculty members have more prominent namesakes, making it difficult to disentangle their Google search results. Data writers break down interesting correlations with Bosworth scores.

Nonprofit organizations, including Princeton, must fill out the Form 990 – a tax form detailing finances for everything from total investment income to the highest-paid employees. The Daily Princetonian analyzed the University’s public tax records in search of intriguing data. Records include contributions to government organizations, assistance with financing homes for employees, and payroll of big-name professors. Through further comparisons of Princeton's finances to the 990s of peer institutions Harvard and Yale, we explored how Princeton distributes its substantial budget — from the roughly $400,000 spent on lobbying to the over $250 million earmarked for financial aid.

Every April, stress abounds throughout campus as freshman BSE and sophomore AB students face the deadline to declare their concentration. They struggle to pick the right department to fit their individual scholarly needs. Yet this stress is unnecessary: career professionals regularly tell college students that their majors do not affect their employment prospects, and alumni from universities around the country increasingly regret their choices in hindsight. So why do Princeton students agonize over this seemingly meaningless decision? More importantly, why does the University require concentrations at all?

With students from 140 countries and all 50 states, Princeton’s student body hails from all corners of the globe. For many students, returning home may pose financial challenges. The University states within the ‘cost-of-Princeton’ breakdown that “the cost of transportation … may range between $300 and $5,000.” Princeton’s financial aid, however, does not specifically cover travel for returning home for all breaks, including Thanksgiving break. The Daily Princetonian broke down where the Class of 2027 lives and analyzed types of travel and prices to different locations.
