In a time when it’s infinitely valuable to have the ability to mold your ideology without being labeled a flip-flopper, it’s best never to have mentioned Proposition 19.

What would Princeton do without me? God knows that my detractors have spent thoooouuuusands of hours framing me as abusive, whereas in reality I am almost single-handedly responsible for all reasonable discourse on this campus.

Of divisions and deans

Since Princeton promotes a four-way academic culture — I: “The Humanities including Architecture”; II: “The Social Sciences including History and the Woodrow Wilson School”; III: “The Natural Sciences including Mathematics and Psychology”; and IV: “Engineering and Applied Science” — this means that two of the University’s five most senior administrators belong to Division II, two more to Division IV and one to Division III.
