The skills that make one effective at adjudicating cases of cheating are not necessarily the same as those that make one effective at ordering Taco Bell for study breaks or planning the famously awkward Freshman Formal.
The Editorial Board is concerned that students will respond to the presence of the Borough Police on the Street by adopting behaviors that are potentially more damaging to student health, and we encourage the Borough Police and Public Safety to work together to return to the old policy.
The rubric by which we measure women’s progress is often still colored by patriarchal biases.
A good internship provides work we can lose ourselves in. But the great ones — that’s work we can find ourselves in.
I cannot possibly fathom the hatred that motivates one to launch rockets from a Palestinian school compound into Israel, risking Palestinian children’s lives to attack Israeli children. Until I do, or until this hatred no longer exists to be fathomed, I will stand by Israel’s right and responsibility to protect its citizens.
The report issued by the Steering Committee on Undergraduate Women's Leaship may have accidentally stirred up harmful gender stereotypes that undermine its mission to develop leaders and achieve gender parity.
@charliemetzger: hope that the 140 char cap doesn’t limit how fully I can express my ideas.
This new lock out policy is unreasonable, and the University should seriously reconsider its implementation next year.
Pakistan and India face off at Mohali, India in the semifinal of the Cricket World Cup, the third largest sporting event in the world behind the FIFA World Cup and the Olympics. Any World Cup semifinal is historic, and any India-Pakistan game is brimming with emotion and spirit, but this particular combination is something else.
The University should set aside its differences with sororities in order to achieve their larger goal of empowering female leadership on campus.
“FMyLife” is a popular website for laughing about life’s misfortunes, but among the petty and pithy posts on our college’s version, PrincetonFML, are serious cries for help: students posting about stress, depression and even thoughts of suicide. The contrast between the mundane and the meaningful is jarring — the frustration of losing socks shouldn’t warrant the same “FML” appendix as the inability to get out of bed all day. We read these darker posts with a grimace and moment of discomfort. And then we keep scrolling. There’s something wrong here: Why are students turning to a humor website to deal with their gravest problems?
The changes proposed by the Steering Committee on Undergraduate Women's Leadership would benefit both women and the campus as a whole, and the Editorial Board encourages the University to implement them.
Essentially, there is no personality vacuum. An Arab’s history and previous actions are as much a part of him as what he exhibits in the present.
When you next have a comment, think about sealing it with your real name. If you don’t, have the self-awareness to know why you are not doing so and consider carefully whether the possible benefits of the posting really do outweigh the costs — to you, to anyone you may be criticizing and to the wider community.
In calling on Gaddafi to leave, Obama unnecessarily added a very real U.S. strategic asset to the calculation — our credibility. Had he said nothing or simply condemned Gaddafi’s violence and watched the colonel slaughter the rebels and citizens of Benghazi, he would have been criticized only for his moral ambivalence. But the moment Obama advocated regime change, he created a scenario in which any other result would suggest to our enemies — chiefly Iran — that we are not confident enough to use all force necessary to achieve our stated goals.
It is widely acknowledged that the Bicker process in general is imperfect. Cannon’s proposed procedure exacerbates its chief flaws.
