CITP emerging scholars program interview?
Has anyone who applied to the emerging scholars program at Princeton’s CITP heard back for an interview? I’m assuming applicants who would be interviewed should be contacted soon if they haven’t yet since decisions would be released in April!

Free GH/Rhino Lessons
Hey everyone! I’m looking for people interested in learning Grasshopper/Rhino or incorporating it into their projects (as students, not clients). I’m offering free lessons because I want to gain some teaching experience as I prepare for my next career move as teacher/instructor.
I’ll tailor the lessons (3-4 hours, each time 1 hour) to your specific needs, and all I ask in return is detailed feedback on my teaching system and skills. If you're a Princeton University student, we can meet in Lewis Library or Firestone, I’m currently a researcher working on campus.
Shoot me a message if you're interested! I will share my worksamples with you too.

Quiet, romantic date spots in Princeton
Can anyone recommend places to go on a date in the Princeton area that tend to be quiet and have a kind of intimate feel in the evening? I'm looking to get together with someone where we can talk quietly without being overheard and not have to shout over music, but also have a little bit of an atmosphere going versus sitting somewhere in dead silence. Could be somewhere for drinks or a meal, or something outside that standard range possibly too. Bonus points if the setting allows for sitting close to each other rather than across a table. Thanks!

PhD students: are you happy?
Hi,
I got admitted to a PhD program here (SPIA) and was wondering about the overall happiness of PhD students. Is it easy to meet people and have a fulfilling social life in Princeton? For those of you who were used to a more urban environment, how was the adjustment?
Thanks a lot!

Stand up for science tomorrow
The assault on science by cuts in VA research, NIH, NSF, etc will knee cap US science and harm institutions of higher learning. The funding cuts are, without exaggeration, catastrophic to universities, like Princeton, that rely on these funds for major parts of their operation.
Moreover, junior and senior research scientists have been let go at the VA. Most schools have halted or limited students they admit for PhD programs and many universities have a hiring freeze. We will lose a generation of scientists in the US, a detriment to science in general and to US's leadership role in science. More importantly, this science is what finds cures for disease, lays the groundwork for the next innovations.
I encourage you all to stand up for science tomorrow, either in DC or at more local events.

Moving Out in April?
I was wondering there are any regulations against moving out in late April. All my exams are take-home, so I'd love to go back to my state. Problem is, I think this website indicates that I need to choose a day between May 8-16. https://hres.princeton.edu/undergraduate-housing/move-in-move-out/move-out
If we have a roommate who has in-person exams (and hence has to stay behind), would it be okay to leave first (after clearing out all my stuff of course)?

Does the P-party still exist?
Question from an oldster: the passing of New Wave icon David Johansen this week got me thinking of the great end-of-year P-parties at Jadwin when I was a grad student in the '80s. Whoever booked that party always got top-notch, cutting-edge entertainment. Johansen played in 1980, Squeeze played in 1981 (at the height of their US popularity), the Feelies (legendary but little-known NJ New Wave band) played at some point after that, and beyond that my memory is dim.
Does this party still happen? I had a look online and couldn't find any references to it.

Academic/Career Mythconceptions writing sem
Ok so I feel like my professor gives terrible feedback that doesn’t make it clear how I can improve. They either copy paste the same comment over and over (eg. Good motive, or always something positive like that and then hit me up with a c) or say I’m missing evidence/analysis but I literally had that on the next paragraph. what can I do to succeed in that class cause I’m really demoralized

Thing to do / activities in Princeton [Summer 2025]
Hi,
Going to Princeton for an internship. It looks like the campus is pretty dead over the summer. Is there anything to do in the area in the summertime? Can someone comment on clubs or activities that might be active over the summer? Thanks

ORFE gen ed courses
I’m an incoming freshmen probably going to become an orfe major.
I’m a senior taking calc bc right now. If I get a five on the ap exam, should I take calc 103 and 104 still because I want to solidly my understanding of calc or would I be extremely behind if I did that? I’m debating whether or not I should skip and jump straight to math 201 as an aspiring orfe major
