Greeks Under Attack?
Thursday, 05 May 2011
by Lauren Zumbach
It’s the latest installment of the University-Greek scene faceoff – this time under the guise of the innocuously-named Report of the Working Group on Campus Social & Residential Life. The report begins with Princeton, A History: Social Edition. It goes all the way back to when Princeton was known as the College of New Jersey,

Dean Malkiel Eats Her Cake
Friday, 29 April 2011
by Ellen Shakespear
If this photo’s any indication, it looks like even Dean Malkiel is ready to kick back, eat, drink and be merry this weekend. Pictured here at Dean’s Bake–happening now!–Malkiel was quick to remind the audience that even if she loved all three finalist cakes, she would be awarding only one first place prize. Swing by
Lawnparties Playlist: Wiz Khalifa x Big K.R.I.T.
Friday, 29 April 2011
by Will Saborio
We know you’re more preoccupied right now with either (1) resting up before the sheer length and intensity of this House- and Lawnparties-filled weekend or (2) going bonkers about whether or not someone is wearing the same dress as you (!!!). While you’re gearing up, though, here at The Ink we figured we’d catch you
The Heaven Test
Wednesday, 27 April 2011
by Lauren Wyman
After yesterday’s gluttonous shenanigans, are you beginning to question the likelihood of you hanging with Jesus in the afterlife? Well, wonder no more. Yesterday afternoon, Chuck–a deacon for many years–stood on Nassau Street between Witherspoon and Washington, giving out free “Heaven Tests.” Intrigued? So was I. Here is the conversation that I had with Chuck.

Reminding You That Reunions Are Ever-Approaching
Monday, 25 April 2011
by Nathan Serota
Like an atom bomb or the end of the world or the Macy’s Day Parade. Whether or not you knew it, Reunions (i.e. “the perennial Ivy League blowout kegger” referred to in a GQ exposé last year) are coming. Can’t you hear it — the pitter-patter of hundreds of alumni footsteps, canes and wheelchairs, the slurping from

Newman’s Day 2011: Still Happened
Monday, 25 April 2011
by Giri Nathan
By the grace of the calendar gods, my Princeton Preview weekend happened to include April 24th, the holiday known as Newman’s Day. When I was just a wee prefrosh I watched my host’s roommate scrawl a Sharpie tally on his forearm for every beer he drank, hoping to get to two dozen by the day’s
So yesterday, I was walking up the stairs of Blair Arch with a few friends when we started hearing strains of drumming and yelling in the distance. There was cheering and some singing, and I could definitely feel a heavy bass. But it was also 6 p.m., pretty early for anyone to start pregaming (not

Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive, and … Dodge!
Thursday, 21 April 2011
by Lauren Zumbach
Let’s be honest, Princeton. We were never the super-athletes growing up. We liked the library, not P.E. We were nerds, and proud of it. We were also always the last ones picked in gym, no matter what sport, and apparently we never really got over it. Dodgeball, according to the sport’s eminent authority Patches O’Houlihan, is
Fire Safety’s Coming, Quick! Hide the Toaster!
Tuesday, 19 April 2011
by Vivienne Chen
As a member of a guilty quad that has been graciously spared the wrath of Fire Safety fines three times this year, I really shouldn’t be poking fun at them. But come on– tapestries? Princetonians, take note. Here are some Fire Safety notices about dorm room fixtures that, who would have thought, aren’t kosher (a shout

USG Knows What We Want
Monday, 18 April 2011
by Alice Su
For those who don’t take the time to pore over the details of Yaro’s emails, his latest introduced a new initiative that may be the most astute campus project that the USG has ever undertaken: a FREE FOOD listserv. The email blurb reads: Do you like free food? Then you’ll love our new FreeFood listserv.
Paula Deen Would Be Proud

by Lauren Zumbach
Even today’s truly un-springlike weather didn’t keep students away from the Southern Society Pig Pickin’ Barbecue, an annual event that’s pretty hard to miss if you spend any time in Dod Courtyard. Princeton’s southern contingent puts out quite a spread – biscuits, sweet tea, watermelon, and corn on the cob – but the centerpiece was
