Confrontations at Columbia, Yale, and other campuses around the country have highlighted the importance of “time, place, and manner” regulations to universities’ academic and educational missions. Because the enforcement of these rules is essential to our community as well, I wanted to offer some observations about their role at Princeton and their relationship to other free speech principles.

The Amazon Prime movie “The Idea of You” is best known for its origin story — the narrative is based on fanfiction about Harry Styles. Pre-screened by USG Movies at the Princeton Garden Theater at 9:45 p.m. on Apr. 18, the film takes its premise and plot from a 2017 book of the same name written by American author and actress Robinne Lee. While Lee has never publicly mentioned “fanfiction” and “Harry Styles” as the inspiration for the book, she admitted that the fictional leading man, Hayes Campbell, was her vision of a “dream guy,” partially derived from Prince Harry, Harry Styles, Eddie Redmayne, an ex-boyfriend, and her own husband.

Princeton students are preparing to set up their own “Gaza Solidarity Encampment,” according to documents first obtained by the National Review and independently verified by The Daily Princetonian, following high-profile encampments at Columbia University, Yale University, and other college campuses that have resulted in student arrests. No tents have been erected in the Nassau Hall area — a focal point for previous sit-ins on campus — at time of publication. The documents did not specify a timeline for when the encampment might begin.

While I am only a first-year photographer for The Daily Princetonian, I have already taken dozens of photos of Nassau Hall. Frequently I have passed by a print copy of the ‘Prince’ or opened the app only to be greeted by one of my own stock photos above an Opinion column or a News article. Indeed, the building has become a stand-in for a photo of the school administration, or more abstract events such as an antisemitism investigation, the admission of the Class of 2028, or even the recent earthquake that struck campus. These stock photos can be used as a visual shorthand for Princeton as a whole, including the school’s reputation of existing within an “Orange Bubble” that separates campus from the “real world.” By this logic, if nothing worth photographing ever happens on campus, another photo of Nassau Hall will do.

An April 23 email from Dean of the Graduate School Rodney Priestley informed graduate students that the University had entered into a stipulated election agreement with the United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America (UE), marking the official first step towards a graduate student union.

Princeton Pro-Life experiences resurgence in the 2023-24 academic year: Your Daily ‘Prince’ Briefing
(04/24/24 5:39am)
This past Monday, April 22, was Earth Day. Since the very first Earth Day in 1970, students have used this day to celebrate the environment and demand action from powerful institutions on the climate crisis. The day has brought attention to environmental issues on college campuses, including at Princeton, from its inception. We, as Sunrise Princeton co-coordinators, celebrate how Earth Day has been a unifying force for the mainstream environmental movement. But we’re not satisfied with how Earth Day demonstrations have been co-opted by greenwashing campaigns and have kept the climate movement siloed from other liberatory struggles. That’s why Sunrise Princeton partnered with a coalition of organizers to cast off old frameworks this Earth Day and to demand that Princeton lead both in stopping actions that contribute to the climate crisis and in building climate justice in its community.

In SPI 499: Making an Exoneree, students have no papers, problem sets, readings, or exams. They just work to exonerate wrongfully imprisoned people. Students in the class “spend an intensive semester as investigative journalists, documentarians, and social justice activists.” As an action-centered class, SPI 499 is a testament to the fact that civic engagement is something that can be incorporated into our everyday learning.
