Broken sprinkler floods Holder Hall, students forced to relocate U . A F FA I R S

By Linh Nguyen, Sarah Warman Hirschfield, Neha Chauhan Contributor, Associate News Editor, Contributor

On Wednesday, Feb. 21, a broken sprinkler forced 26 students living in two Holder Hall entryways to temporarily relocate to residential buildings and faculty housing for over a month.

Alice Wistar ’20 was sitting outside her room in Holder Hall entryway 4 when she heard alarms going off from within the building. When she walked inside, the floor was wet and, she soon discovered that the water had soaked her roommate’s belongings.

“Later [on Wednesday], we got an email that we would have to be relocated for up to a week,” Wistar explained.

Early on Thursday, when temporary rooming assignment were actually given, affected students were advised to find a friend they could stay with considering the fact that the rooms they were initially assigned to were full. The email stated that the move would actually last four weeks instead of one.

Wistar’s temporary rooming assignment was a quad, with four people already living there. This prompted Wistar to stay with a friend instead. The email instructed them to move out by Friday at 5 p.m., according to Wistar.

Entryways 4 and 5 of Holder hall were flooded by a faulty sprinkler.

displaced student was given a permanent rooming assignment for a residence on or off campus. The permanent assignments were rooms with no current occupants, meaning that students would no longer have to impose upon their friends.

The flooding in entryways 4 and 5 was caused by a broken sprinkler. If the sprinkler were left unfixed, water would continue seeping down into the rooms, Wistar said. The walls would eventually be exposed to rot and mold if this were to be the case.

“They will be doing pretty intense construction,

like knocking down walls,” Wistar said. “Sounds like something they neglected to take care of for a long time.”

Wistar woke up early on Friday to pack. The University sent movers to help the students construct and close the boxes. She and six other affected students were relocated to Merwick Stanworth, a faculty apartment approximately half a mile from campus. Other students moved to rooms in other residential colleges and upperclassman housing. “[The apartment] has a kitchen, washer, dryer, living room, three individual

bedrooms, and three full bathrooms,” Wistar explained, adding that the University is trying to arrange for buses to take the students to campus. Wistar is waiting for WiFi and printing access, which the University will provide.

“They’re being super nice about it, but it’s really inconvenient,” she said.

On Friday, Rockefeller College Director of Student Life Amy Ham Johnson checked in with the students relocated to Merwick Stanworth to see how they were doing.

“We completely appreciate your patience through a very difficult situation,”

Johnson wrote. “I have told colleagues in Housing and ODUS that your flexibility has been noted. We cannot thank you enough, and we want you to treat yourselves to dinner at Winberie’s this weekend paid for by us.”

Johnson and Rockefeller Director of Studies Justine Levine, in another Friday email, assured the 26 students affected that they were still members of Rockefeller College.

“Even though you may be living in a space unaffiliated with Rocky for a while, you will still be a Rocky student, with access to all of the same amenities and programs. You’ll still get email from us, be invited to our college-wide study breaks and activities, and — we hope — participate in the life of the college to the extent that you are able!” they wrote.

Michael Psenka ’21 was also temporarily assigned to a quad that was already fully occupied, then to a room in Witherspoon Hall.

“It was all over the place,” Psenka said. “I did not feel like I had time to do much of anything else, because I was always either moving around, going to these meetings, [or] moving stuff.”

Psenka received a GroupMe message around 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday from his Residential College Advisor, Kyle Berlin ’18, about the flooding. He immediately went to his dorm in Holder Hall and saw waSee FLOOD page 2

An early morning fire on Feb. 24, 2018, has temporarily closed Frist Campus Center and the adjoining Jones Hall.

No one was injured, according to a University statement.

The fire was located in the basement of Frist. A University employee discovered it in a dryer used for towels and other linens near the loading dock. Five people were evacuated.

The fire was extinguished at approximately 5:15 a.m., roughly 27 minutes after first responders were first notified at 4:48 a.m.

“There’s a bit of smoke odor lingering in the building,” said Assistant Vice President for Communications Dan Day, “but air handlers are bringing in fresh air to clear the odor out.”

University officials inspected the building because of reports of water damage in the basement and an “odor

For two hours Washington Road was closed as firefighters “staged their equipment outside the building.”

Both buildings will reopen at 9 a.m., according to Day. The basement will still be closed to accommodate the work of cleanup crews.

Journalist alumni talk This week, USG talks gun COS students civic service at Alumni Day reform, first-year advising make realContributor

Daniel Mendelsohn ’94 and Charles Gibson ’65 talked politics and referenced college-day memories onstage as they received awards during the University’s Alumni Day on Feb. 24.

The James Madison Medal and the Woodrow Wilson Award, the top honors University alumni can receive, are customarily presented to one person each year at the annual Alumni Day. This year, Mendelsohn received the Madison Medal and Gibson received the Wilson Award.

In Opinion

The Madison Medal honors a Graduate School alumnus or alumna who “has had a distinguished career, advanced the cause of graduate education or achieved an outstanding record of public service.”

A classics major, Mendelsohn has exemplified these criterion through his career as a writer and critic. His 2006 non-fiction memoir “The Lost: A Search for the Six of Six Million” was awarded the National Books Critics Circle Award, the National Jewish Book Award, and the Prix Medicis, a French literary award given to an author whose “fame does not yet match his talSee ALUMNI page 3

Following their weekend transition retreat, the Undergraduate Student Government discussed official endorsement of the We Call BS: Princeton Rally for Gun Reform, possible revision of the first-year advising system and Princeton Preview, and review of the USG budget during its weekly meeting.

U-Councilor Diego NegrónReichard ’18 and Campus and Community Affairs Chair Caleb Visser ’20 proposed that USG endorse the We Call BS:

Princeton Rally for Gun Reform, which Princeton Advocates for Justice will conduct on Mar. 14 on Frist Lawn. According to Negrón-Reichard, the rally will be non-partisan, encompassing over 25 student groups.

Some USG members articulated concerns about USG sponsorship on such a divisive issue.

“Is the current structure open to people with different opinions coming to discuss this?” University Student Life Committee Chair Tania Bore ’20 asked.

Psenka also noticed that his ceiling was leaking from every available opening. When he saw this, Psenka froze, remaining stunned for 30 minutes.

“I realized that I was not going to have a room for an indeterminate amount of time,” Psenka said.

The experience of being relocated indefinitely was eye-opening for Psenka.

“Life can easily take a huge turn on you,” Psenka explained. “Dealing with that kind of thing and having backup plans is obviously very important, and now I know from practical experience.”

Berlin recalls the flurry

of events that took place since the flooding as if it happened this morning.

“I wasn’t there when it actually started happening, but I came back from class and there were massive showers all inside Holder entryway, some in [entryway] 5, especially the second floor,” said Berlin. “It was basically drenched on the inside.”

Berlin noted that students “are, for the most part, disappointed” by the events, but commended the Rockefeller College Office and University Facilities for “working really hard to make this as smooth as possible.”

“I’m sad because my zee group is scattered all across campus now, but I have a bike,” Berlin joked.

“It’s been very unexpected and strange, but people are holding up.”

and practical applications that are made available to the Princeton community at large. These apps are often constructed to address unmet needs within the Princeton community.

Professor Brian Kernighan GS ’69, who teaches COS 333 in the spring, wrote in an email that the objective of the class was to teach people “how to write significant pieces of code using modern tools and techniques.” “[Students] will learn quite a few specific technical skills through their projects, although different students will learn different things because they will be using different tools and applying them to different problems,” Kernighan wrote. “I often say that the course is a simulation of reality, and these aspects … will definitely be encountered in the real world.”

Projects have ranged in function and scope from a better grading or submission tool for COS 340: Reasoning about Computation to a map of free food locations for University students to a mobile game combining Tetris and Scrabble for all smartphone owners.

“I think the most successful projects have been ones that address issues that all students face, and do that well,” Kernighan said. “I would like to see more projects that reach out to other parts of the University and wider communities as well.”

The Daily Princetonian sat down with three students who took COS 333 in spring 2017. Sarah Pan ’19 was a member of the team that worked on Comet, a productivity app “to help students track their daily routines and ability to follow through with their schedules.”

Comet is a location-based app that adds a star to a virtual galaxy every time the user is where he or she is scheduled to be. Unfortunately, it was never released to the public and has been indefinitely retired.

“All of us had some sort of con-

cern keeping up with our commitments, whether it was going to the gym or going to class,” Pan said when asked about what inspired her group to build Comet.

She believes that apps targeting social needs in the student community would do best to focus on communication and productivity “simply because [they] are two of the most important aspects of being a student.”

While Comet aimed to address a need shared by students in general, another app called TigerFinder sought to improve quality of life specifically for University students. Samuel Miller ’18 and Brian McSwiggen ’18 explained that their web app was meant to help people find resources like bathrooms, laundry machines, water bottle refill stations, and printers.

TigerFinder used the Google Maps application programming interface to optimize paths, as well as various online tools to compile a list of resource locations. An important lesson that he took from COS 333, McSwiggen said, was “figuring out how to use existing information and services to pull together something useful.”

As for the main challenge of building TigerFinder, Miller cited the difficulty of collaborating efficiently and effectively with team members throughout the semester.

The TigerFinder app was live for a year before its web hosting expired. It has since been indefinitely retired as well.

Miller, Pan, and Kernighan all mentioned the ReCourse app as a particularly notable project completed in spring 2017. Created by Jessica Zheng ’19, Bill Zhang ’19, Natalie Diaz ’19, Julie Zhu ’19, and Elizabeth Tian ’19, ReCourse is a “reinvented course search engine” that provides not only the functions included in the Registrar’s basic search engine but also many more refined ones, such as avoiding time conflicts and identifying courses that fulfill certificate requirements.

This semester’s COS 333 project presentations will take place in late May.

Corrections The non-binding term sheet Westminster Choir College signed with Beijing Kaiwen Education Technology Co., Ltd was the subject of an article printed on the Feb. 23, 2018 edition of the ‘Prince.’ The piece was amended as it included an error associated with the title which may have misled some readers.

A look at alumna participation in the last few Olympic games was the subject of another article printed in the same edition. The piece was amended so as to make clear that the writers were looking at more than just the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang. They were looking at the last few summer Olympic games as well.

The ‘Prince’ regrets these errors.

ent.” His essays have appeared in The New Yorker, The New York Review of Books, and The New York Times.

Mendelsohn has also been awarded the PEN Harry Vursell Prize for Prose Style, a Guggenheim Fellowship, two Mellon Foundation awards, and the Nona Balakian Citation for Excellence in Reviewing from the National Book Critics Circle. Mendelsohn is a member of the American Philosophical Association and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

He has contributed to Harper’s Magazine, The New York Times Book Review, and New York Magazine as a columnist. Currently, Mendelsohn is a professor of humanities at Bard College. His most recent book is a memoir titled “An Odyssey: A Father, a Son, and an Epic.”

In his address on Alumni Day, Mendelsohn focused on a definition of civility. He connected the word’s Latin etymology to a discussion of technology’s impositions on today’s public sphere.

“Our word ‘civility’ flowers out of the Latin ‘civis’, which means ‘citizen,’” said Mendelsohn. “Civility is the behavior that marks mutual acknowledgement that we individuals share common public, and political, space.”

“The connection between good manners and good citizenship has been a concern to political philosophers at least as far back as the 300s B.C.,” Mendelsohn said.

He went on to discuss the historical importance of empathy in maintaining a socially healthy public. This contrasted his description of modern-day technology and how it has “enhanced our ability to be asocial.” Encouraging people to “[act] in public as if… still in private” is, to Mendelsohn, how technology threatens today’s society.

“The erosion of basic civility, a process fueled by the advent of the Internet... [and] personal devices,” continued Mendelsohn, “is raising troubling questions about the direction our civilization...is going.”

The Wilson Award recognizes a Graduate School alumnus or alumna who has accomplished the University’s informal motto, “In the Nation’s Service and the Service of Humanity.”

After majoring in history at the University, Gibson’s decades-long

career in television journalism included anchoring ABC’s Good Morning America and World News with Charles Gibson. He reported on the Sept. 11 attacks, interviewed South African President Nelson Mandela, and reported on conflicts in the Middle East and Kosovo. He anchored coverage of the O.J. Simpson trial, the Oklahoma City bombing, and the Virginia Tech shooting.

Gibson has also hosted several presidential debates and interviewed U.S. presidents. He was awarded a National Journalism Fellowship by the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Paul White Award from the Radio Television Digital News Association.

Gibson also anchored awardwinning news pieces, including ABC’s coverage of the death of Pope John Paul II and the election of Pope Benedict XVI. This piece was recognized by an Alfred I. DuPont-Columbia University Award for broadcast journalism.

His address on Alumni Day centered around his view of journalism as a civic service, and he reflected on the challenges faced by news outlets in the current political climate.

“It is not lost on me that the Wilson Award selection committee has this year chosen a journalist, at a time when the profession is under attack to a degree that I never contemplated possible,” said Gibson, referring to President Trump’s statements discrediting news media.

“These attacks on the broadcast media and the press represent to my mind an existential risk not just to the profession, but to the democracy,” Gibson said.

He also pointed to a trend of sensationalization of today’s news, contrasting it with his own experiences and beliefs.

“I was always conscious in those moments of high drama or even crisis that my overwhelming responsibility talking to the entire country was to remain calm — not to overhype,” said Gibson. “I always thought that was one of the most important duties of my job — to let people decide for themselves.”

Both Mendelsohn and Gibson emphasized the role of the University in making the idea of service integral to their careers.

“Service is in the DNA of Princeton and that makes this award all the more meaningful,” Gibson said.

The annual Alumni Day is hosted by the Association of Princeton Graduate Alumni.

Negrón-Reichard explained that the rally would model national dialogue and therefore focus on “sharing people’s personal stories.”

Negrón-Reichard and Visser will offer a more detailed resolution at the next USG meeting.

Moreover, Sarah Schneider ’20 submitted a proposal to supplement the existing first-year advising system. The proposed project would institute both a Career and Life Vision Workshop for first-year students and academic focus groups based on intended major.

“My idea focuses on not really fixing the advisors themselves but more on better educating and empowering the freshmen,” Schneider said.

Schneider will continue to work with USG committees on her proposal in the future.

Negrón-Reichard and Visser further announced cooperation between the CCA Committee and the Projects Board with respect to Princeton Preview. The Projects Board will consult with the CCA Chair to streamline funding requests for Preview events that showcase campus

initiatives and student groups.

In addition, Treasurer Alison Shim ’19 introduced the USG spring 2018 budget. With a total available balance of $281,882.37, Shim expects that $99,111.37 will remain at the end of the semester. In particular, USG will allocate $1,000 to renovate its Frist offices to include student spaces.

The Senate voted unanimously to pass the budget.

Senator Brad Spicher ’20, Negrón-Reichard, and Shim also presented a possible joint venture between the Treasury Committee and the Financial Reform Team to begin the first USG budget audit process. To promote transparency, Spicher suggested that USG open applications for the independent auditor position to the entire student body before choosing an auditor.

However, Deputy Dean of Undergraduate Students Thomas Dunne asserted that hiring an auditor would prove unnecessary and that the treasurer should provide regular reports to clarify the budget instead.

“Your budget is not that financially complex,” Dunne stated. “It’s not a particularly volatile financial picture.”

The Senate tabled the resolution.

Pedagogically permissible, but unnecessary At the beginning of this semester, controversy erupted over Professor Lawrence Rosen’s use of the word ‘n****r’ in a lecture for his anthropology class, ANT 212: Cultural Freedoms - Hate Speech, Blasphemy, and Pornography. As a Board, we have attempted to read and listen to all campus discourse and commentary on the subject, especially to pieces submitted to the The Daily Princetonian both as news articles and Op-Eds. Members of the Board also obtained and listened to a full recording of the lecture. After careful consideration, the Board finds while Rosen’s use of the word “n****r” fell within his pedagogical rights as a tenured professor, it was unnecessary to the teaching of his lesson.

Under the law, people are at liberty to use provocative, offensive, and frankly malicious language. As a professor, Rosen retains the right to determine his own pedagogy.

These facts are not in dispute, and Department of Anthropology Chair Carolyn Rouse and University President Eisgruber have defended Rosen’s

pedagogic right to use the Nword.

In his annual letter to the community, published before the controversy, Eisgruber called for students and faculty to balance inclusivity with free speech. To that end, Eisgruber selected “Speak Freely: Why Universities Must Defend Free Speech,” a book by politics professor Keith Whittington, as the pre-read for the Class of 2022. The Board agrees with Eisgruber that our campus must tolerate pluralistic discourse in the pursuit of truth.

Rouse argued in defense of Rosen’s choice, offering two central reasons for why Rosen’s language was not only necessary, but also effective.

She first contended that using the word would help students “move beyond their common sense to see how culture has shaped their beliefs and emotions.” The word, she argued, would help students expand and challenge their perspectives within the span of one short class. She also cited precedent, noting, “Rosen has used the same example year after

year,” but that this is the first year that students responded negatively.

This Board disagrees with Rouse. Yes, Rosen’s use of the word ‘n****r’ was pedagogically permissible, but it was not necessary to achieving his goal. The exercise in which Rosen used the N-word was one in which several problematic scenarios were offered, and Rosen asked students to hierarchize each supposed incident by the level of offense.

By design, the activity was hypothetical. Yet Rosen’s articulation of the N-word transformed that hypothetical situation into a tangibly offensive situation. Those students did not need to hear the word to understand Rosen’s academic point. One does not need to be punched in the face to know that assault is harmful. Likewise, it is not necessary to feel the effects of hate speech in order to understand it, especially for students who may have suffered its effects in the past. Rosen could have facilitated a compelling and challenging conversation without saying the word ‘n****r.’

“Love saves lives”

Madeleine Marr

Senior Columnist

I

n a recent Letter to the Editor on Feb. 8, The Princeton Pro-Life group outlined why they participated in the March for Life in Washington, D.C. The theme of the march was “love saves lives,” which they emphasized while protesting Roe v. Wade. The letter made some compelling points, but the overarching goal of denying women the right to choose regardless of circumstance belied a misunderstanding about the meaning of “love saves lives.”

The best way to reduce the number of abortions would be to resolve many of the factors driving women to choose that path in the first place. The ProLife letter argued that they wanted to make conditions right so that women would choose to have children rather than seek abortions.

Completing this goal would reduce the number of abortions performed every year, assuming that the pay gap and class inequality were effectively reduced (which is unlikely in the near-future given the pro-life’s party just passed a tax bill that will increase inequality). However, reversing Roe before making inequality nonexistent would invert the necessary order of events; women would still not be able to afford children and childbirth and would not have the recourse to save themselves and their children from painful lives.

Furthermore, some women don’t want children, in the moment or ever. Birth control can fail, and sometimes accidents happen.

Women should have the right to control how they build their families. The

inclusion of a reversal of Roe on the Pro-Life policy platform is fundamentally misguided. A better plan would be to improve the atmosphere so the number of abortions decreases naturally as it becomes safer and more affordable for women to choose that path. Taking away the choice won’t reduce abortions and will actually take lives, not save them.

Roe v. Wade was a Supreme Court decision handed down in 1973 that acknowledged that the constitutional right to privacy extended to a woman’s right to privacy regarding her medical decisions, including the choice to obtain an abortion. The Hyde Amendment, passed four years after Roe v. Wade was decided, mandated that the federal government cannot pay for abortions except in cases of rape and incest or to save the mother’s life (which is interpreted strictly). The amendment also restricts the use of funds by the Department of Health and Human Services; Medicaid recipients are especially affected by the amendment. Because women on Medicaid don’t receive coverage for abortions, up to 60 percent are forced to use money they would have spent on rent, utilities, food, and clothing to pay for the procedure. Anywhere from 18 to 35 percent of Medicaid-eligible women seeking abortions end up being forced to carry the baby to term.

Low-income women are generally the most likely to seek abortions; 73 percent of surveyed women who had had an abortion listed an inability to afford a child as their primary concern. However, career goals, a desire to wait, and even disinterest in having children are also completely legitimate reasons to seek an abortion regardless of the state of one’s bank account.

Women have always found ways to terminate pregnancies when they wanted or needed to, even before the passage of Roe v.

Wade. In 1965, illegal abortions made up one-sixth of pregnancy and childbirth related deaths. 80 percent of the low-income women in New York City who sought abortions between 1965 and 1967 attempted “a dangerous self-induced procedure,” including use of coat hangers, knitting needles, bleach, lye, hypothermia, and potassium permanganate tablets (which caused chemical burns so bad that Dr. Louis Gerstley, in the 1994 documentary Motherless: A Legacy of Loss from Illegal Abortion, said that attempting to suture the wounds was like “trying to suture butter”). Women went to back-alley “doctors” who often caused more harm than good. The horrifying nature of these illegal abortions demonstrates how determined these decision are. Making the procedure illegal will not save lives, but end them.

Taking a broader view of “life,” forcing women to undergo the traumatizing experience of an unwanted birth even if they do give the baby up for adoption can’t be conceived of as “saving lives.” Mandating that nearly all women carry their infant to term can harm their spiritual, academic, and work lives.

Protesting Planned Parenthood and other similar clinics, as many pro-life groups do, may engender psychological damage for the women at the receiving end of the hurled abuse.

Defunding Planned Parenthood also goes against the goal of saving lives, as the organization saves lives through breast cancer and STD screenings, mammograms, and general health care. Many prolife groups also oppose “abortion-causing birth

Rouse’s point that Rosen has used this language before, without controversy, is irrelevant. Precedence does not imply necessity, nor justification. That the use of the word ‘n****r’ did not upset students in the past is not a compelling reason to use it. And if a white man saying the word ‘n****r’ in front of black students is wrong or unnecessary today, that fact stands regardless of its permissibility in the past.

control,” which does not exist. Contraceptives save women’s lives when they allow them to overcome debilitating period symptoms that kept them out of work and school for up to a week every month.

Contraceptives also save women’s mental health, allowing them to take ownership over their bodies and whatever sexual decisions they make. They get their lives back when they go on some form of birth control, so why are their lives not also protected?

Love saves lives, and loving the women who have to make the incredibly difficult decision to seek an abortion means allowing them to make their own decision in the best environment possible. Radical reforms must be enacted to reduce inequality and expand child care options, comprehensive maternity leave for women of all classes (especially in parttime jobs), and free childcare. When those changes are made, many women will use these opportunities to have a child they could not have supported otherwise. The ones who still do not want a child will not, and their lives will only be hurt if Roe v.

Wade is reversed.

The arguments made in the letter about protecting other aspects of life, including protection against police brutality and infanticide, were strong. I support those movements and think their inclusion represents a step in a positive direction. But the emphasis on an opposition to Roe v. Wade and the association with other prolife groups at the March for Life contradicted the Princeton Pro-Life group’s declaration that their love saves lives.

What does Aziz Ansari’s assault accusation mean for college campuses?

Jess Nyquist

Senior Colmnist

A

mid the flood of highly publicized sexual assault accusations in the media industry, the recent accusations toward Aziz Ansari strike a unique and relevant controversy for college campuses. Ansari, an outspoken feminist and supporter of the #MeToo movement, was recently faced with an accusation of sexual assault. The accuser discussed a sexual encounter with Ansari in which she felt pressured to perform sexual tasks, despite her obvious hesitancy and the combination of nonverbal and verbal cues of discomfort that she displayed. The accusation prompted an onslaught of replies targeting both Ansari and the alleged victim. Some criticized Ansari’s hypocrisy, while others questioned why the woman, represented under the pseudonym “Grace,” did not actively remove herself from the situation.

Ansari’s misconduct represents a much more relatable scenario for college students than others in the #MeToo movement, such as that of Harvey Weinstein. Rather than a manifestation of workplace harassment and power dynamics, Ansari’s case describes an instance of poor communication and inappropriate relations between peers.

The power dynamic, between a 23-year-old and a famous comedian, more closely mimics campus interactions between students where power could be at play though not necessarily specifically defined or

outlined.

The national media debate around Weinstein and Ansari has made clear that the two men’s misconduct are distinctly different. Weinstein stood accused of rape, while Ansari’s actions are not clearly criminal at all. Yet, as Matt Kaiser of Vox has argued, “behind closed doors at universities, actions like Ansari’s are absolutely being lumped together with rape.” Kaiser’s comment seeks to draw attention to the difference in the standard of evidence required to prove guilt in campus assault cases, which are resolved through Title IX, as opposed to in criminal court cases. A criminal court requires guilt of a crime to be proved beyond reasonable doubt, whilst Title IX requires a mere “preponderance of the evidence.”

With these criteria, much less evidence is required for a college student to be condemned through Title IX than for a regular citizen to be condemned in a court of law. Had Ansari’s case occurred on a campus and had Grace accused him of “sexual assault,” he may well have been found guilty by Title IX. Grace’s description of her interaction with Ansari does not constitute sexual assault.

While the encounter by no means demonstrates acceptable or respectful sexual relations, it cannot be conflated with the serious term and consequences of assault. Defining the scenario as “assault” both wrongfully implicated Ansari and trivializes the rightfully severe term.

Ansari’s accusations send a powerful message to the administration: we must adequately distinguish between cases of assault. Both in our rhetoric and our policies, the University must make clear this difference in order to re-

spect the severity of assault.

This sort of all-too-common sexual interaction does not fall under the domain of University regulation or punishment but instead change is up to the inclination Princeton students.

The accusations highlight the lack of media coverage and popular dialogue around more routine and less extreme cases of assault. The use of physical force or the exploitation of a power inequality is clearly repugnant. However, both men and women receive little guidance, both formal and informal, on cases in the middle of the spectrum between forcefully non-consensual sex and abstinence. This issue presents a cultural obstacle rather than a procedural one. The Ansari scandal demonstrates not that the administration needs to take action but that the student body must.

When we enter Princeton, many of us are entering a sexual environment completely unfamiliar and distinct from previous experiences. We are meeting huge numbers of strangers. We are drinking in new locations. We left many safeguards and securities at home, like all-knowing friends or imposing parents.

Ignorance is never an excuse, but this period of learning demands we discuss and prepare for these middle-of-the-spectrum, common situations.

For men, I would hope the Ansari story is an awakening to the importance of empathy.

While we learn the concept of enthusiastic consent, in practice we find ourselves in situations where we must strive to understand our partner beyond obvious cues. Anna North of Vox comments that “countless men have likely behaved as Grace says Ansari did — focusing on their own

desires without recognizing what their partner wants,” and “the sheer commonness” of the experience “makes it so important to talk about.”

While American culture and pornography indoctrinate men to push for sex at all times, we must change both the dialogue and the practice to a norm that praises sex that is respectful and equal.

For women, many of us have grown up in “a neatly halved sexual universe, in which there is either assault or there is sex positivity.” Rebecca Traister in New York magazine describes this world where “outside of sexual assault, there is little critique of sex,” and “young feminists have adopted an exuberant, raunchy, confident, righteously unapologetic, slut-walking ideology that sees sex — as long as it’s consensual — as an expression of feminist liberation.” Celebrities like Amy Schumer tell us what it means to be a sexual empowered woman: in the movie Trainwreck, she sneaks out of the apartments of sleeping partners and fakes sleep to avoid reciprocating sexual acts. She portrays complete sexual dominance and control over her male counterparts.

But for many women, this style of sexual interaction is inconsistent with our own desires and personalities.

This should not mean we are wrong or weak or not liberated or bad feminists. Many self-proclaimed feminists, like Bari Weiss, reflect that “the single most distressing thing about this story is that the only person with any agency seems to be Aziz Ansari. The woman is merely acted upon.”

As women, we have the power and responsibility to change the demands of femininity to require an empowered “no” rather than to default to a po-

he Olympics are just as much about national pride as they are about competition. In the Parade of Nations, the athletes parade around the stadium, holding the flags of their respective countries, as fans across the globe cheer them on. At this year’s Opening Ceremony, Pyeongchang colorfully told South Korea’s history through the perspective of five Korean children, as doves were released and John Lennon’s “Imagine” was sung, signifying a celebration of peace. The Games bring countries together in one place, where athletes from around the world set aside their dif-

ferences and unite through the passion of sport. Unification is especially important when the politics of sport attempts to pulls things apart.

At the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics, more than a dozen Russian athletes were caught in a state-run doping scandal, and Russia was stripped of its medals. While the IOC has banned Russia from competing in this year’s games, forbidding any government officials to attend, the committee has cleared more than 400 Russians to compete, each under the title “Olympic Athlete from Russia” (OAR). The athletes will compete under a neutral flag and none of their wins will contribute to Russia’s medal count. Most of the OAR members didn’t compete in Sochi and none of them have violated doping rules in the past. The IOC has received significant criticisms for not taking a more aggres-

sive stance against doping and failing to bar all Russian athletes, regardless of their past, from the games. While the easy answer seems to be to punish the entire country, there is still room for discussion concerning the clean athletes who have trained their whole lives to compete at the Olympic Games, and yet are associated with those who have chosen to break the rules.

While I understand the backlash against the athletes competing in this year’s Olympics, I believe stripping athletes — who followed the rules to begin with — of their nationality and preventing them from making their country proud is sufficient punishment. As an athlete, playing for your country is the dream, because then you can play for something bigger than yourself. Even on my team now, we always talk about playing for our teammates and those

who came before us, not just ourselves.

The Olympic Athletes from Russia walked in the parade without a Russian flag, leaving them nationless in a national event, to play only for themselves. And perhaps it is best that they keep the glory at an individual level, because the Russian government doesn’t deserve any of the rewards.

In the Netflix documentary Icarus about the Russian doping scandal, Grigory Rodchenkov, former director of Russia’s national anti-doping laboratory, explains how in Sochi, Russian officials assisted in swapping out dirty samples for clean ones through a small hole in the wall. The government and its institutions were running the whole operation; the poison is not in the competitors, it is in the authorities. According to Rodenchov, Putin’s mandate was

lite “yes.” We are 21st century women, and I believe we have the power to say the uncomfortable or unpopular “no” that our mothers’ mothers may have thought impossible.

Women must rewrite this dialogue to find a feasible and comfortable way to champion their own sexual interests.

But many would argue this is easier said than done. Even in the absence of physical force, other factors like emotional or psychological coercion can make women feel trapped in a sexual encounter.

Even though she is at no fault for the uncomfortable situation, she still has the power to exit it.

Ansari’s accusations and the dialogue surrounding the story offer a uniquely relevant perspective on sexual assault for college students. The story reveals a hole in our teachings and discussions: the everyday, uncomfortable and miscommunicated sexual encounters that can leave a profound impact. While men have a responsibility to understand the less tangible aspects of sexual respect, women have a responsibility to develop a personal way to protect and champion themselves in sex while staying true to their own desires.

We don’t have to dominate every interaction to respect ourselves as women. We don’t have to avoid sex altogether.

But we should feel empowered to exercise our direct “no.”

In reality, policies can only go so far. Students must take responsibility to change the rhetoric around sex — what it means for students today like us — on campus and beyond.

to win at all costs, and if that meant creating a system to cheat, then his athletes would participate.

However, in these 2018 Olympics, the clean Russian competitors, most of whom were not a part of the Sochi scandal, shouldn’t be punished for the choices their government made. After all, I don’t want to be represented by what Trump chooses to write on Twitter on any given day. The IOC should take serious measures to cleanse Russia’s committee of corruption, as well as to check thoroughly the systems of other countries, but banning Russian athletes completely would be unfair.

The results of their commitments shouldn’t depend on the results of others’ crimes.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

What is consensual?

I

magine hypothetically, I am walking alone at night. Some three strangers approach me and take me to a parking garage. They ask me to give them money and I give all the cash I am carrying without resistance. Is it theft or do they just consensually receive my money? Theft is the physical removal of an object without the consent of the owner. Do I give consent just by staying still in a threatening circumstance?

On June 16, I received an email with the information about witnesses of kissing between a Princeton electrical engineering faculty member and a former Princeton graduate student who was subject to his academic supervision. I submitted a screenshot of this email, with the informants’ identities hidden, to Title IX ad-

ministrator Regan Crotty on June 17. She replied on June 18 to this email that “With respect to the alleged kissing/relationship, the best thing would be for the two witnesses (and/or anyone else who has concerns or relevant information) to contact Toni Turano (tturano@princeton.edu, 609-2583024) directly. This inquiry (regarding an alleged consensual relationship) would be overseen by her office because, while it is against University policy to engage in consensual relationships with graduate students you are advising/evaluating, this violation does not fall under the University’s sexual misconduct policy. She could explain to them that we could keep their identities confidential/anonymous.” She referred to the incident as “consensual”

without any Title IX inquiry on the information I submitted or conversation with the informants.

According to University policy, when the Title IX office receives a complaint, it must conduct an initial assessment. If the Title IX office determines that the complaint is outside the scope of sexual misconduct policy, it may refer the complaint to another office for review. Did Crotty make a right determination that the information is outside the scope of sexual misconduct?

Can someone determine that some incident was consensual before initiating an investigation to figure out whether it was consensual or not? I would like to raise a question: How could she reach the conclusion that this inquiry regards an allegedly “consensual” re-

lationship even without a Title IX investigation?

University policy reads that “in reviewing possible violations of sexual misconduct, the University considers consent as the voluntary, informed, un-coerced agreement through words and actions freely given, which a reasonable person would interpret as a willingness to participate in mutually agreed-upon sexual acts.” Is it easy for everyone to be un-coerced by authority?

Can any reasonable person really interpret not resisting against someone who has power over your career as consensual?

According to University policy, sexual harassment is “unwelcome verbal or physical behavior which is directed at a person based sex, gender identity or gender expression, when these

behaviors are sufficiently severe and/or pervasive to have the effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual’s educational experience, working conditions, or living conditions by creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive environment.” Should there necessarily be violent resistance in order to prove it is unwelcome? Does silence in a career-threatening situation imply that it was welcome? If I had not reported that Sergio Verdú sexually harassed me in fear of losing my research career, would it not have been sexual harassment?

What is consensual?

oday we are combating the language barrier by “taking the bull by the horns!”

Through tools like Google Translate and relatively accessible community college classes suited for beginners at the English language, there appears to be a “silver lining” to the language barrier that inhibits immigrants’ integration into the American culture.

Language is one of the most representative aspects of a culture; when we feel fully comfortable speaking a nation’s language, we are on a direct path to integration into the national community. It is

no myth that merely understanding the vocabulary and grammar of a language poses one of the most challenging obstacles a non-native speaker immigrant must overcome.

Also true, however, is the fact that language encompasses quips, references, memes, and other trends that pertain to the culture in which the language is immersed. Such references reveal the unique histories, icons, and values of a society. While we may think that fluency in a language is enough for a citizen to feel fully integrated in a community, the language of culture reveals otherwise.

Therefore, perhaps grammatical fluency in a language is not the only indicator of a full understanding of the different ingredients that make a language. The recipe to integration is ever-growing with culture, and it is arguably ever-more difficult for immi-

Locks on l

grants and first-generation children to align completely with a culture.

My own story can serve as an example. Though I was born and raised in the United States, I largely connect with my Portuguese heritage through the culture in my home. What I know of Portuguese culture is through my parents’ teachings. Yet, I still struggle to feel like a citizen when I visit Portugal.

Outside of my home, I connect with the larger American culture around me. What I know of this American culture is school-taught or selfsought through the Internet.

However, some references and quips I hear in conversation, references to a culture in which I live, appear strangely foreign. At times, I am left at a crossroads between my semi-understandings of these two facets of my life. This is especially troubling in my

day-to-day encounters in the United States. In feeling unaware of the meanings of quips or references and their implications for the culture, recent immigrants and their children may feel alienated in dialogue with a friend, or struggle to contribute to a national conversation. This demonstrates that the language of culture presents an inhibiting factor to immigrants’ full integration to the society in which they are immersed.

Our language is encoded in cultural lingo, and the immigrant is challenged to decode these ideas. Phrases like “taking the bull by the horns” may not be directly translated to a different language, and to a non-native speaker or first-generation child of immigrant parents, they contribute to an overall sentiment of alienation from the national culture. To help

transcend the language barrier, we can utilize online language resources and watch videos, television, and other media outlets to familiarize ourselves with the surrounding culture. Additionally, dialogue with others will reveal patterns in language and common cultural references.

Nonetheless, this reality reveals an important factor of language that we often overlook: Fluency in English may not encompass the entire American story told through language. We should consider the many factors that are at play in language when we talk with our peers. Even without an “accent,” they may be unaware of the cultural meaning behind the words you use and the stories you tell.

Caroline Park ’11 takes the ice with unified Korean women’s hockey team WOMEN’S ICE HOCKEY

years in a matter of weeks.

The international spotlight is on them. It can’t be easy for them.”

Prior to the games, Park spoke with GoPrincetonTigers.com. “This has been an incredible experience and I’m extremely proud to represent Princeton women’s ice hockey as we grow the sport in South Korea,“ she said. “This is the first time South Korea has ever had an ice hockey team compete in the Olympics, so there is still a lot of room for development, but this will be an incredible opportunity for the sport to gain exposure in a country dominated by speed skating and figure skating. I’m fortunate to be able to share my experiences of playing hockey growing up in Canada and at Princeton, and it’s been truly rewarding to see young girls in Korea learn about the sport and get excited about lacing up some hockey skates.”

Korea finished in eighth place out of the eight nations in the Olympic women’s tournament, having earned an automatic bid as the host country. Far more significant, however, was this union of North and South Korean athletes competing together at the Olympic Games. Athletes across all disciplines wore uniforms simply marked “Korea.” Kim Yo-jong, Kim Jongun’s sister, was present to cheer on the athletes.

The 2018 Olympic Games may prove to be a breakthrough moment in history.

At a meeting with South Korean President Moon Jae-in shortly before the closing ceremony, Kim Yong-chol, a senior North Korean official, expressed that North Korea would be willing to open dialogue with the United States.

The Winter Olympics, hosted in Pyeongchang, South Korea, officially closed on Saturday night. The United States finished fourth in the medal count, with 23 medals, well behind Norway’s first place at 39. But for many Olympians such as Caroline Park ’11, the journey is about much more than winning a medal.

Park competed on the women’s ice hockey team during her four years at Princeton, helping the squad reach the ECAC quarterfinals each season. Having grown up in Canada, ice hockey was a natural choice for Park, whose parents emigrated from South Korea prior to her birth. Park is one of five North Americans on the Korean roster this Olympics, having become a naturalized citizen.

Park was first invited to try out for the South Korean national team in 2013, while she was working as a clinical research assistant at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City. She has been quoted as saying she thought the initial email from the Korean Ice Hockey Association was spam. By 2014, she was told that she had potential to be on the Olympic team if she obtained citizenship. A year prior to the Olympics, Park opted to take a leave from classes and her clinical residency at Columbia University, where she has studied since 2015. She committed to training full time for the Olympics and made plans to return to medical school to continue pursuing her goal of becoming an orthopedic surgeon after the Games.

athlete at Princeton undoubtedly prepared her to maintain an Olympic-caliber training program while attending medical school. Speaking to Emily Kaplan of ESPNW, Park elaborated on the challenges of balancing the two. Park stated, “You’re trying to focus 100 percent on doing well in med school and taking care of patients, then in the back of my head I’m thinking, ‘OK, I get out of the hospital at 8 o’clock, I need to eat dinner then go to the gym and train for an hour or two, then go back and study for my exam and prepare for the next day of hospital duties. Or sometimes it’s, ‘OK, I do this then I have to go to Korea for the weekend.’”

Park also discussed the initial cultural challenges

she faced. On her first trip to South Korea in 2013, which was her first time leaving the United States, she overheard others talking about her in the locker room and noticed cultural tensions. Assimilating into the team was a challenge, but Park said that her relationships with her teammates strengthened over time, and “... since then, everything has been great. In terms of adjusting to the team, the girls are so nice and welcoming. Even though we’re not with each other all year, all the time, we’re a team now. Every time I go back, it’s like I never left.”

Park’s Olympic journey took on a whole new level of international significance after the International Olympic Committee (IOC) announced

that 12 North Korean athletes would join the South Korean women’s ice hockey team to form the first ever unified squad.

At first, Park explained, the arrival of the North Koreans was met with some frustration. She spoke of the difficulties of managing a different team dynamic so close to the Games. “Logistically, when you bring over 12 players, you have to figure some things out,” Park said. “Locker room space, ice time. And it’s hard to skate with 35 players on the ice.” She continued, “They’ve… been really thrown into it, and the girls have been super friendly and really eager to learn. They’re trying to learn the systems we’ve been practicing for the last four
