College is not why you should be proud of me. Rather, you should be proud of all the Black and Asian Americans who fought to enter white-dominated institutions,such as Princeton, so that I, too, could be blessed with this opportunity.
In the service of the nation, Princeton should suspend classes on Election Day every year.
The reality is, nothing will be done for the students and campus workers who need change, so long as the venal relic of an antidemocratic administration hoards the University’s assets and the Board of Trustees are compelled by their very job descriptions to relieve anti-racism of whatever fangs it might carry.
If you want someone’s vote, you have to convince them that that vote would do the most good, not just feel deserving and sanctimonious.
With the midterms stress dying down and finals just around the corner, I want to remind students to take a step back and live for what we have now. The uncertainty about the spring is daunting, but we need to remember and be grateful for the moments we have now because we don’t know when they will be gone.
With a few minor adjustments, the orange bubble could become a sanctuary that protects insets from light’s dark side.
The show is premised on the idea that if the right people are at the helm, government can serve everyone fairly. But at a time when systemic issues are top of mind, where we question whether reform is enough, that idea is harder to accept, as much as we wish it were true.
Knowing what we know, it would be malpractice not to divest with all due speed.
Living a life of forgiveness is ultimately for ourselves. Resentment is simply poison that we drink believing it will fix us. But it rarely ever does. Anger will make us feel vindicated, but it will not set us free.
Hobson’s donation, and its celebration by the student body, should also push alumni to give back to their alma mater in ways that challenge and change the narrative.
Some ideas are not worth discussing; the basic and fully answered question of whether or not racism is real is a distraction from talking about how to handle its innumerable impacts.
De-politicizing the appointments process is the only way to prevent further erosion of judicial independence, which is crucial for the preservation of the Court’s integrity.
We need to eliminate the pushback and second-guessing caused by sorting people into just one racial category because it is what is expected or more common.
Generations preceding my own — my grandmother’s included — do not consider the sense of agency that naturally occurs as a result of casual acts of sex. When a woman my age has sex, she no longer gives a piece of herself away; sex has become a mutual act. It is now the norm to equally participate, to give and receive.
In this election, and every one going forward, we must recognize that democracy does not survive unless we support it with our creativity, our grit, and our full commitment.
School closures disproportionately affect both low-income students and their families. Consequences for students include interrupted learning due to lack of proper technology, significant vulnerability to violence, and even lowered nutrition, since many students rely on free meals provided by the city.
Let us keep fighting in the face of danger, as and alongside people under attack. Let us make sure there is soon no longer a president who encourages violence against people because of their race or ethnicity or because they are fighting that discrimination. Let us get out (to the polls or our mailboxes) and vote for a different future.
The Princeton many left, the Princeton many first-years never met, may be shadowed by health measures that leave us aching for our college experience. But in that slow and careful crawl back to normalcy, we might find comfort in people and places we have forgotten.
But we want more community feedback, and I want to respond to calls from some in the University community for changes in our department.
