Like any celebration, the true success of the Graduate School Centennial will be gauged by the work of its participants ? Princeton's current Master's and Ph.D.
Over the past few months, the Institute for Transregional Study of the Contemporary Middle East, North Africa and Central Asia has brought in a number of speakers who have discussed the current situation between Israelis and Palestinians.
I am writing in response to concerns that have been communicated to me, in e-mail and in person, about the decision to restructure SHARE.After an extensive review that included suggestions from students, faculty, staff and members of Health Services as well as the SHARE office, it was decided to integrate SHARE more fully into the University Health Services.Our primary goal in restructuring SHARE is to ensure the health and safety of the University community.
Unlike most students who will be leaving Princeton this June, I will not be graduating. Like many of my graduate student peers, I will enter into a year of "post-enrollment" status, a limbo state in which I am neither a Princeton student nor an alumnus of the University.
SHARE cutbacks will quiet rape, harassment victimsI am deeply dismayed by the planned cutbacks in Sexual Harassment/Assault Advising, Resources and Education; it makes a parody out of the administration's token support of events such as the Take Back the Night march.
The 'Prince' congratulates professor Shirley Tilghman on her election as the University's 19th president.
I apologize for this self-indulgent column. After four years of cranking out columns for the 'Prince' every two weeks, this will be my last one.

Last Thursday, in a not-so-rare moment of post-thesis sloth, I tuned in to CBS for the "Survivor II" season finale.
It's time to get serious. No more kidding around, no more frivolous jokes and lighthearted Friday morning columns.
USG, U-Council clarify stance on WROC goalsAs a means of clarification, we would like to state that our positions on WROC, its goals, initiatives and work up to this point have not changed since we first heard of the movement many months ago.
As President Shapiro ends his tenure at the end of this month, it is unclear exactly what his legacy will be.
The weekend before last, a group of Princeton students hopped in an S.U.V. and drove up to Harvard for the Fifth Pan-Collegiate Conference on the Mixed-Race Experience for two days of socializing and discussion with other multiracial college students from around the country.
When a herd of students ditch Fristfest at 8 p.m. tonight, you can bet that most of them are rushing to watch the final episode of "Survivor II" and learn which of the three remaining outback castaways will win the million-dollar grand prize.But while "Survivor" virgins may thrill at witnessing their first finale, I've noticed that the current "Survivor" doesn't grip past fans ? this columnist included ? the way the first series did.
