Having been one of the last Ivy League universities to announce its fall semester plans, Princeton now awaits a spring semester decision set to be announced in early December, becoming one of the last Ivies to reveal concrete plans for the spring.
During the weekly Undergraduate Student Government (USG) meeting on Nov. 15, Orientation Program Coordinator Neena Robertson of the Office of the Dean of Undergraduate Students (ODUS) presented results from the Class of 2024 orientation survey and a review of the week-long event for first-years.
The first time I saw a video thanking and cheering on our health care workers — including our doctors, nurses, and EMTs — I cried.
Of all the phrases tossed around in the arena of politics and punditry, none brings me more bemusement than “the leaders of the Black community.” I’ve heard about these leaders in precept, in the news, on Twitter, everywhere. They are never named, nor is the community in question given any tangible bounds, which leaves my mind free to wonder: Who are they? Oprah Winfrey? Barack Obama? Serena Williams? Reverend Al Sharpton? Dave Chappelle? Lizzo? Who are the few individuals empowered to act as the singular voices of the entire Black population?
On Election Day, New Jersey voters overwhelmingly supported — with 67 percent approval — a constitutional amendment to legalize recreational marijuana for those over the age of 21. However, the state legislature still needs to pass a bill on the matter before the drug becomes legal.
The University has updated the criteria that determine which students may apply for spring emergency housing. Students who face unsafe or hostile conditions on account of “social identity” or “protected characteristic(s)” will now be eligible to apply.
Even if you don’t frequent TikTok, you’ve likely heard Conan Gray’s viral song “Heather,” which exploded on the online platform. The song is a tender and mournful portrayal of young, unrequited love accompanied by gentle acoustic guitar and simple vocal melodies laid over the main motif.
The Humanities Sequence, also known as HUM, has taken hundreds of Princeton first-years from the hallowed heights of Homer’s Troy to the fiery depths of Dante’s hell. The course is well-known for its difficulty and rigor: 400 pages every week, 28 books in a semester.
The Daily Princetonian caught up with Gaby Hamburger, a junior on the women’s lacrosse team, about her decision not to take a gap year, her experience in the weeks leading up to the Ivy League decision to cancel spring sports in March, and her new training schedule.

For much of the past year, COVID-19 has taken all our attention, wresting focus away from urgent environmental problems — even those that the pandemic has exacerbated. Central among them is the overconsumption of single-use plastics.
After a historic victory, Vice President-elect Kamala Harris and President-elect Joe Biden called for unity, as Biden inaugurated “a time to heal.”
In their first semester, Princeton first-years often face a host of academic questions. Is everyone putting off their R2s as well? Does my professor really expect me to do all of my readings and still wake up for a 9 a.m. lecture? Does anyone else’s math problem sets take them over eight hours? And, above all, where can I get help?
On Friday, Nov. 13, the Municipality of Princeton’s Health Department (PHD) reported 16 new cases of COVID-19 in the past week, adding to a two-week total of 30 new positive cases. These weekly and biweekly counts are the highest the PHD has seen since early May, when case numbers previously peaked.
“We respect the choice of the American people,” the Chinese Foreign Ministry said on Friday. “We congratulate Mr. Biden and Ms. Harris.” Coming nearly a week after the Biden-Harris ticket won, China was one of the last global superpowers to recognize the incoming administration.
Upon matriculating at Princeton, I received two things in the mail: the classic black Princeton t-shirt and a copy of the pre-read, “Speak Freely.” I wasn’t the only one: the entire student body was encouraged to read the book. That’s how seriously the University takes freedom of speech — at least on the surface.
On Nov. 2, the University announced that campus laboratories can partially re-densify, with a minimum of 125 square feet per occupant. Researchers must continue to use personal protective equipment (PPE), as well as follow strict social distancing guidelines.
