Reinforcement and Risk
It is common knowledge that college, and especially Princeton, is not a very accurate depiction of the real world. In particular, the real world differs significantly in regard to the people who surround us daily, the expectations for our work, and the leisure activities we participate in. But there’s one fundamental difference between Princeton and the real world that I’d like to point out, a particular mindset difference that affects all other parts of our lives: our risk-reward perspective.
