Campus through a lens: Announcing the ‘Prince’s inaugural columnists

| OPINION | 04/18/2024

Reading a series of columns by the same author is seeing things through the writer’s lens — it’s looking at campus through the ‘Christofer glasses’ or the ‘Eleanor specs.’ This is the thinking behind having named columns.
