Don't Harvard Our Princeton
We urge the University to stop imposing its vision of an idealized dining experience on students who are already happy.
A recent policy announced by Princeton University would require members of eating clubs and co-ops living in University housing to buy a second meal plan, costing about $900 a year.
It's wrong to ask people to pay for something that they neither need nor want.
- The policy would be disastrous for Princeton's undergraduate experience.
- The University's centralization of dining will asphyxiate these great institutions.
- A one-size-fits-all solution is actually one-size-fits-no-one.
