Check out these famous science experiments made possible by glass! This was created by scientific glassblowers Mike Souza of Princeton University, Sally Prasch of Syracuse University, and Kiva Ford of the University of Notre Dame.
Woah. That's awesome!
I’m walking around Princeton wearing an orange scarf doing book research if anyone would like to join me. I could use a person to bounce ideas off of.
Have a great visit! You fit right in with the orange scarf.
It's officially spring at #PrincetonU now that the fountain at Scudder Plaza is on.
Enjoy a few of the early spring blooms at Princeton.

There’s no reason to hold class inside on a day this beautiful at Princeton.

What defines a Rhodes Scholar? Sure, there’s lots of work in the classroom, the library or the lab. But sometimes a bungee jump tells part of the story, too.
Thomas Dunne, deputy dean of undergraduate students, shares this story about Richard Lu, one of Princeton’s four 2016 Rhodes Scholars:
Richard pushes himself in the best possible ways to create the fullest experiences for himself and others. This summer while doing vaccine research in South Africa, Richard went along with a group of friends to bungee jump off Bloukrans Bridge in Western Cape, South Africa. In recounting the experience of falling 700 feet tethered by his ankles, Richard talked about his intense fear of heights and how he was able to complete such a feat with the enthusiastic support of his friends. It was a quintessentially "Richard Lu" moment for me; he talked more about fear and vulnerability and less about accomplishment, and at its core the bridge jump was an memorable experience shared by a group of friends. He also said he only told his mother after the jump and that he'd never do it again. He's been an exemplary representative of his class and I'm thrilled that he will represent Princeton at Oxford. His cohort just gained the consummate "glue guy" that will unite the group and work to make sure everyone has the best experience possible.

An offensive lineman’s job is largely anonymous — clearing a path for a running back or giving the quarterback enough time to zip a pass downfield. When linemen are praised, they’re praised as a unit. When a lineman is called out by name, it’s often because he was caught holding or forgot the snap count. As Princeton tackle Mason Darrow ’17 puts it, “I’m used to not really getting mentioned, unless I screw up royally.” That changed dramatically on Sept. 15, the day before the start of fall classes, when Darrow publicly came out as gay in a story published by Outsports, an online magazine that covers LGBT issues in athletics. Suddenly, he was the most recognizable person on a roster of 120.
