Week In Review: By the Numbers Edition (August 7-13)
Monday, 13 August 2012
by Lauren Zumbach
The Olympics are now over, but one more Tiger managed to take home a medal: Diana Matheson ’08, who scored Canada’s only goal in the bronze medal women’s soccer match against France for a 1-0 shutout win. That means Princeton had seven medalists, which, as @PrincetonBetch points out, beats the country that invented the Olympics.

Monday, 10 January 2011
by Angela Wu
Princeton is all about minor luxuries–those things that happen to you on campus that make you stop and exclaim “Hey! This is not what college should be like! Where is my cold pizza and my lumpy futon? My beer-stained floors and that one poster of two girls kissing?” For example, I seriously suggest that you

Nerds: It’s time. Time to dust off those swords and shields. Time to say those final prayers. Time to kiss those families goodbye. ‘Cause ResCol Quiz Bowl? It’s a-comin’. First up in this intramural Battle of the Brains? Mathey v. Whitman, 10 pm Tuesday in the Mathey Common Room. This is just the opening salvo,

Extreme Makeover: Forbes Edition
Tuesday, 05 January 2010
by Ellen Shakespear
There’s nothing like coming back to Princeton: a fresh blanket of snow on ivy gates, final exams, and roaring fireplaces. But for some, homecoming looks more like this. This is the wall behind my bed in the Forbes Addition. Home, sweet home. It turns out no amount of sticky tack can actually cling to cinder

Things that used to be better when I was your age… Dining Halls, Pt. 1.
Thursday, 08 October 2009
by Eric Dodds
Now I know what you’re thinking: “But Eric, almost all the dining halls on campus have been remodeled, renovated, or created in the last four years.” True. Doesn’t mean they’ve been improved. I may not eat in the dining halls as much as I once did, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t noticed some of

The Freshman’s Guide to Princeton: Dorm Life
Wednesday, 16 September 2009
by Will Saborio
Ah, Frosh Week. A bright spot in the lives of all Princeton students, the sweet collective calm before the furious academic storm of a school year.

by Spencer Gaffney
August is upon us! Ah, the Sunday of the summer months, freedom mixed with the creeping inevitability of the school year. Personally, we’re with Dave Plotz and his zany plan to rid the world of this month once and for all! But August or not, we’re still here at The Ink summer news desk, wading
