It sucks that high school sports don’t matter much for college admissions, yet the club sports teams here are so damn selective. It blows my mind people managed to do research in high school and be a varsity sports captain as a secondary extracurricular

Hello! I'm a prospective student looking to apply to Princeton university for a math major, but I'm also really interested in communications and human interactions- so the logical intersection seems to be Human Centered Computing. I have research experience in this field from my state university, and was wondering what opportunities there are for research related to this on princeton university's campus? Specifically, I was interested in the possibility of completing my senior thesis on this topic, and potentially getting the opportunity to travel through the international internship programs? If anyone had any information on any of these topics, that would be much appreciated. thanks!!

i’m struggling with my writing seminar and it’s supposedly on the easier side, but i literally cannot gather the motivation to write something and have already a late submission of a draft. i’m really worried and can’t do this right now. do people fail writing seminar and can i just drop it right now for other circumstances? i don’t want my gpa to tank already because of this class

My brother played ball boy at the latest Princeton soccer game and I was wondering if anyone had footage the game, mainly due to the fact that he stated "Bro I hit a jojo pose during the game!" so I would like to review the footage to see if this true, thanks!

Hi everyone, I work at Junbi and have noticed a woman who frequents the store almost everyday and orders multiple drinks and appetizers. She always has other people pay for her, and sits in the store for hours and sometimes the whole day. I see her outside a lot too ; she usually tugs a large luggage case with many bags. I think she may be homeless. I feel bad and want to help her. Does anyone know her situation or what we can do to help?

1. Dishwasher and dryer sometimes not working.
2. Cheap furniture and paint
3. Thin walls that you can hear your neighbors
4. Cheap closets with a strong odor, likely unhealthy in long term

So cheap considering the amount of money we paid.

Hi all, basically the title. I’m wondering if this Anker 200W charger with 2 USB-A ports and 4 USB-C ports (link to charger: https://a.co/d/6k7me2F) is allowed in my dorm. The fire safety regulations state that extension cords, non-breaker, multi-outlet devices such as adapters, cubes without surge protector, etc. are prohibited, but I don’t think this charger goes into any of these categories (link to fire safety: https://hres.princeton.edu/policies/fire-safety-policies). As always, any help, info, or advice would be hugely appreciated, thanks!

Who has the best oysters in Princeton? Also, any oyster happy hours in town with a good deal? Traveling into town on Monday.

Any recommendations on where I could take my girlfriend for brunch on a Monday? It’s her birthday, something with breakfast options and mimosas would be great, but Monday’s are tough so any recs would be great.

I have family visiting and they want to check out the princeton downtown area as well as the campus for just visiting

Can we bring our dog on campus if we are just walking around with him?

Been to princeton campus several times and I just can't recall ever seeing any pets walking around the campus itself. I've seen dogs often in the downtown area

I am currently studying abroad and ESPN plus seems to be blocked outside the US. What other streaming websites or services are there? I know Princeton is a pretty small school when it comes to these things so there might not be any streams. Is my best bet to get a VPN and ESPN plus?
