by Giri Nathan
It’s official: the third generation of Princeton FML moderators has arrived. A quick rundown of recent events … As any faithful FML reader knows by now, Mod 1.0 Raymond Hsu ’11 recently passed the mantle to a pair of new moderators (their identities remain as yet unknown).

Would you study on Facebook?
Monday, 06 December 2010
by Angela Wu
Would you study on Facebook? Not study as in Facebook stalk your cute sophomore lab partner (or, let’s be honest, yourself), but study as in, like, prepare for an exam? The answer to that question, found Ingrial, the company behind the now-defunct Facebook app “Courses,” is no, according to the Chronicle of Higher Education. “We

According to USG president Mike Yaroshefsky, OIT has a whole new site in the works — they’ve got a functional version up and they’re currently gathering feedback, says an anonymous tipster. The Ink took this new version for a little test

We just don’t do commencement like we used to
Saturday, 15 May 2010
by Miriam Geronimus
We know that there’s still a week of finals, but since the year is almost over, we thought we’d share a silent video of Princeton commencement ca. 1928. Some of it you’ll recognize — like the hand motions to Old Nassau or the P-rade. But apparently there are some traditions we’ve lost in the past

by Abby Greene
Ok, so we’re less than 48 hours away from, well, you know, and you’re feeling a little concerned. Well, perhaps anxious. Or maybe you’re just downright freaking out. But never fear!

Sunday, 09 May 2010
by Will Saborio
Remember TigerFinder? If you don’t, get familiar: Last year some COS majors whipped up this thing that you download onto your computer that then sends out a signal to TigerFinder to let people you add as “Friends” on the thing know exactly where you are on a map of campus. And so we were all

Thoughts from the Mod, Vol. III: Choosing a Successor
Thursday, 06 May 2010
by Giri Nathan
There comes a point where every king must step down from the throne. Even our Glorious Mod. Yes, all good things come to an end. However, as the late 90’s heartily affirmed, that means there’s also a new beginning! And this one could involve you! A tantalizing excerpt from a Mod interview: You might think

In which we issue a correction.
Wednesday, 28 April 2010
by Will Saborio
UPDATE: After some discussion, we decided that our judgments were rather more unsophisticated and flippantly worded than we think desirable. For example: We should probably make it clear that IvyGate doesn’t hate Princeton. And we don’t hate IvyGate. And BLOG WARS!!! are, like, totally lame. I used to really like IvyGate. Now, I won’t go

PrincetonFML asks “How do you wipe?” and 500 of us respond
Sunday, 25 April 2010
by Brian No
As our own David Walter declared last week, if it’s April, it’s, um, Excretory Month here on The Ink. But, really, we’re just reflecting what seems to be a campus-wide airing of excretory-related issues–it’s not just us! Case in point: the Prince ran an editorial cartoon on the 14th about the cartoonist’s traumatic experience with
