2. Defining Diversity
Princeton University is acommunity of learning that
is enriched by the wide
variety of perspectives of
its students, faculty, staff
and alumni. The University
is committed to building a
diverse campus community
by making its distinctive
education accessible to
students from a broad
range of cultural, ethnic
and economic
backgrounds.
3. A Distinctive Education
There are manyfeatures that define a
Princeton education,
but what is most
distinctive is the
emphasis on providing
students with ample
opportunity to explore
and then deepen their
academic interests.
4. Uniquely Affordable
Princeton admitsundergraduate students
without regard to their
family financial
circumstances and
provides loan-free
assistance for 100
percent of determined
need. Fully 55 percent of
incoming students
currently receive needbased aid.
5. Access to Great Minds
Undergraduate andgraduate students have
direct access to many of
world's best minds,
including Nobel Laureates,
Pulitzer Prize winners and
MacArthur fellows. More
than 700 Princeton
professors (including
Cornel West, shown above
leading a freshman
seminar) teach and advise
students throughout their
Princeton careers.
6. Innovations in Teaching & Research
Innovations in Teaching & ResearchAs Princeton's scholars and
scientists push the boundaries of
their fields, they also create new
ways to engage students in the
excitement of these advances.
Some of the most dramatic
progress occurs when
researchers from different
disciplines work together. For
example, computer scientist Olga
Troyanskaya (above with
graduate student Chad Myers)
works with seven other faculty
members to teach an innovative
freshman course that combines
biology, physics, chemistry and
computer science.
7. Encouraging Original Thought
The senior thesis givesPrinceton students the
opportunity to pursue original
research and scholarship on a
topic of their own choice under
the guidance of a faculty
adviser. Above, Katy Milkman
combined her interests in
engineering and the
humanities to conduct a
statistical study of the 442
short stories published in The
New Yorker from October 1992
through September 2001.
8. A Broader World View
Many academic programsacross the University offer
students chances to
explore international issues
in exciting ways that they
may not normally consider,
from visual arts and music
to anthropology and the
sciences. Additionally, the
Study Abroad Program
offers myriad opportunities
in more than 35 countries.
9. Princeton's mascot
Princeton's mascot, the tiger,was adopted through custom
rather than proclamation,
ironically not long after
Woodrow Wilson's class of
1879 donated a pair of
monumental lions to guard
Nassau Hall's entrance. The
use of the tiger -- rather than
the lion -- as Princeton's totem
has been ascribed to two
things: a popular cheer that
used "Tiger!" as a rallying cry,
and the use of orange and
black at athletic competitions.
10. A Residential Campus
Princeton is aresidential campus,
where students live
in an environment
that emphasizes
shared experience.
Above, families help
students move in at
the beginning of the
school year.
11. A Beautiful Campus
From Gothic to Victorian, andfrom neoclassical revival to
postmodern, buildings in a
variety of architectural styles
have been carefully planned
to blend harmoniously into the
landscape of the 500-acre
campus. The Princeton
experience is unique for each
student because the campus
offers diverse resources for
the mind, body and spirit and
enough flexibility for students
to explore them in their own
distinctive ways. More images
are available online.
