[quote=Anonymous]I went to Princeton (and was in Colonial) in the 1990s, and I live in Princeton now. In some ways it is a very different place than it was then. There are fewer "ordinary" upper middle class kids like me; now everyone seems to be either an athlete, a minority/low-income/first-gen person, or a white/Asian UMC kid who is very exceptional in some way, with maybe a few legacy normies mixed in. Study abroad after sophomore year is very challenging because of Princeton's independent study requirements (two junior papers and a senior thesis). Does your kid do any activities? That's a good way to make friends. And your kid should definitely sign into a non-selective club. I was just at Colonial last weekend for brunch. It has been largely Asian for the past 10-15 years, but so what? Asian people can be lovely. [/quote]
