At Princeton, It's All About Race, Class, and Connections
For all the good things that can be said about a Princeton education, sometimes, aren't you just really glad that you didn't go there?

How is this embarrassing to Princeton? The New York Observer is the institution with egg on its face.
Ooh! Ooh! A source says that some people were mean to each other in the bicker process! I got a source for you right here, jackass: it says GOSSIP IS NOT FOR NEWSPAPERS.
I don't know if the Observer is a newspaper but I can guarantee that if they're making a policy of printing catty comments they can get people queueing up at every college in the country to be anonymous sources.
What an embarrassment the press is. Why would you even click the link, Bradley? What's your problem?
I wouldna clicked the link except I like Princeton. Its top deans have more decanality in their little fingers than Harvard's, and it's a school were postadolescents go to learn about postadolescence and postpostadolescence.
This post, however, Bradley, was simply adolescent.

Things don't change much over the years. See the Crimson article (from a time when Crimson writers knew how to write):

Ah yes, the days when Crimson writers knew how to write! This smacks of those golden days, Professor Goldfarb, when an "A was an A." I suppose our writing moves in the opposite direction of our grades, right? Hogwash. Myth and lies!
While some of Richard's other posts today were BS, I thought this one was on the mark. I also agree that that other poster just doesn't sound like Standing Eagle...
The story isn't gossip; it's about access and social life at Princeton, and totally legitimate game.
Professor Goldfarb... The Crimson has a score of excellent writers. Well said, dude above me.
