For six months I read document after document unpacking how Princeton got involved in a set of private fossil fuel investments. Read about it from Princeton’s editorially independent alumni magazine here:

Also Rich Cahan, our amazing photographer, was a big part of this piece.
This piece is a testament to the importance of local news. The RoundTable was tipped off about the incident and got there first because of local sources. We got the interviews we did because we have built trust with sources. Proud to work for a paper that's invested in the community it serves.
From an interview I did with an Evanston man who filmed the incident at Oakton/Asbury today:
From an Evanston resident filming an arrest at Oakton/Asbury ~an hour ago:

"He was being very violent with her, I said ‘You got to stop that,’ and he said, ‘Step back or I’ll fucking shoot you.‘ I step back, and then I continue to record, at which point he turned around and pointed a gun at me.”
It appears a green object was thrown onto the court at the Sky/Valks game. I couldn't see it for myself, but seems it may be the same type as at Dream/Valks game. Security was talking to people in the 200 sections.

Chicago Sky rookie Hailey Van Lith says her goal every day is to be herself and help the team, but it’s not an instant process.

I'm afraid I've confirmed that The Philadelphia Inquirer ran the same "Heat Index" supplement that the Chicago Sun-Times did
Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett’s appearance at Princeton yesterday was met with numerous protests — and actions taken by protesters are now under investigation, according to the University.

Kaitlyn Chen ’24. What a story. Lost her first year playing at Princeton due to COVID, built up her skills under an incredible Princeton coaching staff led by Carla Berube, and cashed in the covid year for a National Championship with UConn. An Ivy degree + a natty!

Five weeks ago, Mary Kate Cornett was a first-year business major dating another Ole Miss student.

Then a spurious claim about her and her boyfriend’s father spread — and was amplified by Pat McAfee, Barstool personalities and others.

Been playing with some stats re: Princeton MBB's first half point totals vs second half point titles. Can they solve the urgency problem?

Junior Taylor Charles had an impressive game with 9 points, 7 rebounds, and *5* blocks.
FINAL: Princeton WBB 63, Dartmouth 39. Skye Belker picked up 16 points, and Tabitha Amanze led the team in rebounds, with 11.
Tigers have now gone on an 11-0 point run of their own. 61-39 with about 1:30 left in the game.
