No one is too old — or too queer, or too poor, or too black, or too disabled, or too incarcerated, or too undocumented — to be worthy of life, or worthy of grief.
Records show that STEM concentrators have won the majority of Shapiro Prizes every year since they were established, despite comprising half or less of the student body.
We applaud Princeton’s previous decisions to revise policy when confronted with the realities of the pandemic and encourage similar action before the disparate effects of the current grading policy become even more self-evident.
The repercussions of this repulsive xenophobia will only result in the loss of American lives and shattering of unity.
While most of us have returned to our respective homes, school work isn’t the only thing we should be worrying about.

Casually timing your consumption of news is doable, and it stops you from sacrificing chunks of your day to get over-read instead of well-read.
