[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anybody want to summarize what he said? [/quote] You have to watch it because he’s quite genuine and that doesn’t translate. But basically- Princeton is a a really unhappy unhealthy place. People are manipulative, extremely competitive, and stressed. Do your research before you choose you college. Don’t just listen to the tour guides. Watch how students interact. Then he gave really good advice on choosing friends wisely! Sounds blah big listening to it gives it credibility [/quote] Russell Crowe as John Nash had a similar experience at Princeton in the 40s.[/quote] I read Sonia Sotomayor's memoir some years ago and remember that her descriptions of transitioning to life at Princeton made it sound really rough for someone who didn't have a privileged background.[/quote]
