“Freedom, ‘I’dom, ‘Me’dom, where’s your ‘We’dom?” It’s an unequivocal call for compassion, sympathy and solidarity.
“Too poor for college, too rich for financial aid” is a phrase that describes the awkward financial status of those who can afford college, but not comfortably.
Everyone knows “that kid” in precept. The one who talks far too much. The one who has the answer to every question.
I hate to do this, but let's talk about Yik Yak for a moment.As many of us have seen over the past few weeks, Princeton’s local Yik Yak has exploded with denouncements of the Black Justice League’s peaceful protest outside and inside of Nassau Hall.
I grew up in Colorado. When I tell people this, they usually make some reference to its natural beauty, its ski resorts, or the possibility of legally purchasing marijuana there for recreational purposes.
The Black Justice League’s sit-in in the office of University President Christopher Eisgruber ’83 has reignited an important discussion on race and inclusion at the University.
On Nov. 16, Luke Gamble wrote an opinion article titled “Mr. Hollande, No new wars”. In the article, Gamble cautioned France against making the same mistakes the US did after 9/11 by creating a “broad and blind war on terror.” While I agree with the sentiment of restraint shown in the article, I believe that such absolute pacifism is not the answer.
Here’s the thing: Ours is a campus with a long history and an infinite future that’s wrestling with the currents of the roiling present.
Intrigued by rumors about inflammatory posts about the protests in Nassau Hall, I made the mistake of downloading YikYak again last week.
Dear Princeton Student Protesters: I hear congratulations are in order. They’re not coming from me, but a part of me respects what you did.
Dear Students,On Nov. 18 Princeton University undergraduates, spearheaded by members of the Black Justice League, staged a walkout and a sit-in at Nassau Hall.
I am pleased to hear that students finally decided it was time for Woodrow Wilson’s name to be expunged from our campus.
To the Editor:In my cinema course, I teach how Woodrow Wilson, Class of 1879, premiered the film “Birth of a Nation” in the White House and approved its racist view of Reconstruction.
Beginning at noon on Monday, Princeton’s Undergraduate Student Government will be holding elections through Wednesday in order to elect its leadership for the coming calendar year.
I sat with the Black Justice League for over six hours during Wednesday’s sit-in protest in the office of University President Christopher Eisgruber ’83.
