“My brain is really funny and inappropriate, and I don’t think that’s not connected to Tourrette’s,” said comedian, storyteller, and advocate Pamela Schuller. “I think that Tourrette’s has added to my comedy, to my weirdness, to my humor.”
In November 2022, OpenAI released a chatbot called ChatGPT — and immediately sparked a heated debate about the ethical use of artificial intelligence, especially in education. Trained on years of data obtained from the internet, ChatGPT garnered attention for its ability to potentially generate quirky sonnets and multi-paragraph essays, write code, and even compose music. The full implications of ChatGPT’s use are yet to be revealed, given its recent development. However, in academic circles, some have noted that students may rely on ChatGPT to cheat and plagiarize, while others point out that ChatGPT is a helpful tool for generating ideas and modeling responsible use of technology.
Two young people meet on a train, each on separate journeys to find themselves. Instead, they find each other. In the “Before” trilogy, Jesse and Céline find love and romance, laugh and bicker, and lose and regain each other through a series of disconnected conversations — once in their 20s, again in their 30s, and then as parents. The films repeatedly confront and resolve the contradictions of an ideal love interrupted by the demands of real life.

Catalysts, the agents that speed the rate of chemical reactions, power chemistry in research and industrial applications in the modern world. A recent breakthrough has given us the chance to use materials more commonly found on earth in this critical function. The Princeton scientist behind that breakthrough, Dr. Paul Chirik, the Edwards S. Sanford Professor of Chemistry, was just named a 2022 fellow in the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) on Feb. 2.

For myself and much of the rest of the Black diaspora, February is one of the most special months of the year because it marks the start of Black History Month. Although the Black community is often marginalized in the United States, this is the one time of year that we can count on Black success and excellence being amplified (even if it is sometimes reduced to talking about the accomplishments of a few leaders such as Martin Luther King Jr., Ida B. Wells, Malcolm X, and Rosa Parks). At Princeton, the same holds true. Last February, the University, and the town hosted numerous events to amplify Black voices, including an event at the public library and workshops at the School of Public and International Affairs. February is an important opportunity for everyone, Black or not, to not only learn more about Black history and how to foster an inclusive space for Black people. Although I’m highly looking forward to the programming that the University and other organizations will hold in honor of the month, this time offers the opportunity to critically reflect on how the University has failed to create a safe space for members of the Black diaspora on campus.
