To prevent pointless replacement and lockout charges, maximize convenience, and create better access to meals and facilities, Princeton should follow the precedent set by some of its peers and adopt a digital prox system.

Having a student-centered disciplinary process that understands root issues will allow for a more empathetic, fair adjudication of an inherently difficult process.

Our service workers are real people with the same fundamental needs as our student population. If we can afford to give our students hundreds of millions in aid, we can surely afford to pay our staff members — who are equally crucial to the Princeton community — a decent and fair wage.

In the face of rising housing insecurity and the court-mandated construction quota, the municipality must take advantage of the recent availability of Westminster campus with affordable housing in mind.
If the University is serious about fixing the mental health crisis on-campus, they must develop preventative and proactive solutions alongside reactive ones. That means taking student well-being and rest seriously. Academic breaks where students have time to recoup from weeks of stress must be as restful as possible.

It’s clear that 5Terra is making the wrong choice by failing to fully investigate their own plans and attempting to build a talent pipeline between students and PIF companies, putting Princeton’s values of service and ethical leadership at risk by wading into possible involvement in human rights abuses.

Rising seniors who apply to their college’s draw receive an additional 0.1 points to their draw weight for every year they’ve lived in their college, ensuring that those who successfully drew in in their junior year get priority. The University must abolish this unreasonable rule to restore fairness to the room draw process.

When chatbot tools like ChatGPT are consistently used in place of basic critical thinking and simple mental tasks, we lose our ability to complete these tasks ourselves.

Judges, like Justice Sotomayor, are obligated by the constraints of their roles to be impartial. Princeton students have no such obligation — we are not detached interpreters of the Constitution but rather active political agents. While our backgrounds and values rightfully shape our political views, we shouldn’t let that inhibit our ability to listen to other perspectives.

The federal government is attempting to take control of private academic institutions. In principle, this feels much more akin to nationalization, or condemnation –– terms that refer to government repossession of private enterprise.

Orientation student leaders do vital work that shapes the earliest moments of the Princeton undergraduate experience. They build community, support new students, and ease the transition into college. If we value that labor, then the institution must reflect that value tangibly.
It is not Marschall who bothers me most, although he certainly bothers me quite a bit. It’s the conditions that allow for Marschall to cause great harm and strain to the University — including the Trump administration and the right-wing media machine — even though he is not affiliated with it.

Class of 2029, I ask you to come to campus with the conviction that activism can work and a willingness to participate. Those of us who are already here will have the plan.
