Parting shots

If we do successfully fight the fact that it’s easier to whine than to act, then we’ll have something to be proud of. If there’s a moral here, it’s that Princeton is ours, and we forget this at our peril.

No time for a Tea Party

I have yet to see any Tea Party presence or even to hear any students express their support for the movement. The lack of a visible Princeton Tea Party, and the scarcity of protesting in general, reflects the busy nature of Princeton culture.

An irrelevant debate

In a world in which one in five video rentals are pornographic and in which more than one in 10 Internet visits are to porn sites, the question of feminist porn seems marginal, at best.

Why I did it

"Why’d you do it?” “Why rock the boat?” “And if you were going to do it, why now, more than a year later?” “And why did you let them put your name on it?”

SCORE, eBay style

I was getting increasingly freaked out as my computer clock clicked over to 7:28. Should I click the enroll button two seconds early at 7:29:58 or wait until it was officially 7:30? What if I didn’t click fast enough to get into the lab I wanted and had to cancel and start the registration for the class all over again?

Precept by choice

The fact is that some students get nothing out of precept, while others benefit greatly. Does the school not trust us to do what is in our own best interest?

Friends and family

Princeton has often seemed to me like a sort of big extended family. Like all families, some of the members are a bit odd and a few don’t get along, but for the most part we have enough in common that we generally enjoy each other’s company.

Editorial: A preview of eating clubs, since the Street is closed

As you explore life on campus, one aspect of life here that many of you may have concerns about and which you will not be able to experience firsthand this weekend is the social scene at the eating clubs. Prospect Avenue, also known as the Street, houses nine of the 10 eating clubs currently in operation. For this weekend, though, it will be virtually shut down except for club members. We would like to use this opportunity to give you an idea of what the eating clubs are like and to address some common concerns about them.
