Opinion

Every time I step into the shower in my dorm, I think longingly of my bathtub at home. I am a self-professed bath addict; there is almost nothing I like better than soaking out the day’s worries in a tub of steaming hot water. Unfortunately for me, there are very few bathtubs in the dorms at Princeton.

Princeton mediocrity

I shamefacedly mumbled out my atrocious GPA, at which point he sat straight up, his shaggy eyebrows arched in outrage and with what appeared to me to be a look of disgust, and shouted, “Anything less than a B is unacceptable!”

Giving 'chutzpa' a bad name

To its critics, myself included, Fannie Mae represents a truly grotesque economic mongrel that allowed by Congress to seek private profits (an lush executive compensation) at taxpayers’ risk. It has thrived over the years mainly on the support of federal legislators whose affection it purchased with hundreds of millions of dollars of campaign financing.

Intelligent apathy

So, to those who say that college is an opportunity to become engaged with important issues, to those who point out all the problems of the world, I can only say: Yes, to be sure. But we’re also like 20. We don’t know what the important issues are.

A tale of two universities

If Oxford, on a much more limited budget, can offer students an hour or two of two-on-one or three-on-one teaching a week with a senior academic, in addition to a full lecture course, and all Princeton’s resources only let you have a 15-on-one precept, something’s drastically wrong.

Mid-term existentialism

For me, midterms have been a trial by fire, not merely in terms of my academic standing, but regarding the course choices I have made. The truth is that all my frustration this week hasn’t been the work itself, but what I’ve been working on.

The law of unintended consequences

If the University should prepare us for married life, why not prepare us for all manner of other things as well — like having children?
