Flaws of the Darwish-ian Approach to Understand Islam

/May 29, 2010

by Sohaib Sultan On Thursday, March 24th, 2010 I endured an hour of distortion against one of the world’s great faiths—Islam. The Princeton Tory and Whig-Clio along with an outside organization by the name of CAMERA sponsored a lecture by Ms. Nonie Darwish entitled “Human, Women’s, and Minority Rights Under Islamic Law.” Darwish claimed that […]

Letter from the Publisher: Overcoming the Princeton Prism

/May 29, 2010

by Aaron Smargon We are all familiar with the “Orange Bubble,” that intellectuality of political apathy that surrounds our campus and shields us from outside worries. To some degree, this protection—reinforced by the administration and faculty—is a necessity. For without it, how could we individually muster the callousness to devote hours of our days to […]

Off the Deep End: The University’s Irrational Appointments

/May 29, 2010

by Will Herlands and Sam Norton Princeton prides itself on hosting a faculty whose members possess varied experiences and viewpoints.

The Trouble with SHARE

/May 27, 2010

by Audrey Pollnow In 2008, 18 forcible sex offenses were reported on Princeton’s main campus.  Given that 17 of those sex offenses occurred in a residential facility, the majority were almost certainly instances of date rape.[1] Given how large a problem this is, Princeton demonstrates an appropriate attitude of concern in choosing to address the […]

Steering Princeton Off-Course

/May 27, 2010

by Phyllis Schlafly In the spring 2010 USG elections, 27 males and 22 females ran for a position. Women by no means lack clout in appointed positions either; they make up 6 of the 12 members of the influential Honor Committee.

POINTS AND PUNTS

/May 27, 2010

Brotherhood The Tory congratulates the Daily Princetonian et al. for hazing the hell out of the fraternity system. *** Michelle (Again) Much flak has been given to First Lady Michelle Obama ’85 for her decision not to attend her 25th Princeton reunion.

Replacing Janet Dickerson

/March 25, 2010

by Toni Alimi Vice President Janet Dickerson’s October announcement of her retirement from Princeton University in June certainly came as a hard blow to the University.  Among many other achievements, in her ten years here, she masterminded the University’s push for four-year residential colleges, the re-opening of Campus Club, as well as the opening of […]

Beware of Greeks Bearing Euros: A Critique of Krugman and the European Crisis

/March 25, 2010

by Matthew Sanyour ’11 Greece is in serious economic trouble – there is virtual unanimity of opinion upon that point among liberals and conservatives alike.  The Greek government has been horrendously irresponsible; the creative accounting practices that Athens has been using to hide its growing profligacy from Brussels in violation of EU economic guidelines are […]
