Following a presentation on nancial agreements related to two inclusionary housing developments at Princeton Shopping Center, Princeton Council voted at its meeting Monday to adopt four ordinances having to do with the issuance of bonds for public improvements, an easement agreement, and PILOTs (payments in lieu of taxes). The ordinances, which were introduced by Council at its last meeting, are for the 125-unit The Alice Princeton, at Harrison Street and Terhune Road, which will have 25 set aside as affordable housing; and the 200-unit AvalonBay Princeton Shopping Center project, at the southern end of the center, which will have 40 designated affordable (including four group home units). Council also approved redevelopment agreements for the two projects at its last meeting. The two projects are part of Princeton’s court-mandated affordable housing obligations.
Winn Companies is developing The Alice, which will include such public amenities as a neighborhood public park on Terhune Road with a native plantings garden, walking and cycling paths, a tot lot, dog park, and bike racks. The AvalonBay development includes a $1.2 million contribution for upgrades to Grover Park, and a $500,000 contribution to support the Municipal Sustainable TransportationPrinceton’sFund.
The presentation, which is available on With COVID-19 case numbers, hospitalizations, and deaths declining and monkeypox infections low in Mercer County, Princeton residents might be tempted to relax, or at least take a deep breath. The Princeton Board of Health (BOH) is not recommending that. “It’s great that we don’t have a lot of cases right now,” said BOH Chair George DiFerdinando regarding the monkeypox virus, “but this is a long haul situation where we’re going to be focusing on vaccinations and messaging on how to prevent exposure.”
The monkeypox vaccine, though limited in supply, is available to high-risk New Jerseyans and those who think they have been exposed to the virus. Further information on the virus and vaccines is available on the NJDOH website at nj.gov/healthIncommenting on the monkeypox health emergency, DiFerdinando cited areas where the health officials’ response has been informed by lessons learned 40 years ago in the HIV/AIDS crisis. “In the early years of the HIV epidemic there Monkeypox, COVID Create Challenges
affordable housing attorney Kevin van Hise outlined the redevelopment Council Adopts Housing Development Ordinances 11 process, with details on how the site was designated as an Area in Need of Redevelopment. Focusing on the PILOTS associated with the projects, he said there is a misconception that they are a windfall for developers. “Since PILOTs are based upon a percentage of revenue, the agreements have a provision prohibiting excess profits,” he said. “The developers must submit audited nancial statements annually to con rm compliance.”

Area students share what they are looking forward to this school year in this week’s Town Talk on page 6. (Photo by Charles R. Plohn) the website princetonnj.gov, reads, “In lieu of paying property taxes on the improvements created by the project, the redeveloper makes annual service charges known as ‘payments in lieu of taxes’ or ‘PILOTs,’ which are based on a percentage of annual rental income generated from the project. As rental income increases, the payments made to the municipality increase.”According to the presentation, the rstyear PILOT is estimated at $792,413 with incentives for electric and other energyefficient appliances, clean vehicles, and rooftop solar panels. It also prioritizes lower-income households and disadvantaged communities. The release highlighted the areas of electri cation of building energy systems; increasing the adoption of low-carbon, onsite power generation; and expanding access to zero-emission vehicles as three speci c elements of the bill that will help Princeton to meet the goals of its Climate Action Plan, which was adopted in 2019. Princeton has set the target of an 80 percent reduction in emissions by 2050.

The rst case of monkeypox in New Jersey was reported on June 18 this year, and, as of Tuesday, August 23, the state had 441 cases, mostly in northern counties bordering New York City, which has the highest case numbers in the country.
Mercer County on Monday reported a total of 13 Monkeypoxcases.can cause u-like symptoms, swollen lymph nodes, and a rash that often begins on the face and spreads to other parts of the body. It is rarely fatal but can be very painful. The vast majority of people infected with monkeypox in this country are men who have sex with men, but health officials warn that monkeypox can infect anyone, regardless of gender or sexual orientation.
Since monkeypox has a three-week incubation period, case numbers need to be looked at from month to month rather than week to week, he added.
He pointed out that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the New Jersey Department of Health (NJDOH) are preparing a long-term vaccination effort. “The planning is for a longer-term problem, not just for one season,” he said. “There’s a need for a sustained response.”

Princeton Medical Center Named a Best Regional Hospital Penn Medicine Princeton Medical Center (PMC) was recognized as a Best Re gional Hospital in central New Jersey in the 202223 Best Hospitals rankings published online by U.S. News & World Report. PMC tied for the No. 6 ranking in New Jersey and No. 24 in the New York metropolitan region. In ad dition, PMC was rated “high performing” in one specialty — orthopaedics — and the procedures and conditions COPD, heart failure, hip fracture, hip replacement, kidney failure, knee replace ment, and stroke. “At PMC and across Penn Medicine Princeton Health, we have fostered a culture of pursuing excellence and achieving higher standards,” said CEO James Demetria des. “These results are a tribute to every employee and physician whose work supports patient care at the hospital.”The2022-23 rankings mark the eighth year in a row that PMC was rated high performing in multiple types of care and the seventh time it earned recognition as a Best Regional Hospital. The ratings are based largely on data related to clinical outcomes and pa tient safety, patient satisfac tion surveys, and indicators such as whether a hospital holds Magnet status, the highest institutional recogni tion for nursing excellence. PMC, part of the University of Pennsylvania Health Sys tem (UPHS), is one of 591 hospitals worldwide to hold Magnet recognition. This is the first time U.S. News rated PMC high per forming in stroke care. PMC is designated a pri mary stroke center by The Joint Commission and the American Heart Associa tion/American Stroke As sociation (AHA/ASA). The hospital also earned the Get With The Guidelines–Stroke Gold Plus Quality Recogni tion Award from AHA/ASA four years in a row. A Princeton tradition!

Housing Development continued from page one $760,716 to Princeton. “A traditional tax scenario would yield the municipality approximately $242,366,” it says. “The total 30year PILOT is estimated at $30,960,000, $20,930,000 more than Princeton would receive under a traditional tax scenario over the 30yearDuringterm.”the public com ment period, Princeton res ident Dale Meade objected to the terms, while former Councilman Lance Liverman spoke in favor. Council’s vot ed unanimously to adopt the ordinances.Alsoatthe meeting, Coun cil agreed to pay $2,500 for new signs directing motor ists to downtown parking garages and surface lots as requested by the Princ eton Merchants Association (PMA). Road closures relat ed to continuing construc tion in the central business district have negatively af fected local businesses, and PMA President Andrew Sie gel urged Council to also arrange a traffic study to help come up with a way to mitigate the problem. Siegel, whose family owns Hamilton Jewelers, pointed out that six of the seven streets in the central busi ness district are currently in a one-way northbound configuration because of construction of the Graduate Hotel on Chambers Street. Only Palmer Square West funnels traffic southbound. In addition to confus ing patrons about how and where to park, the configu ration has created problems for vendors trying to make deliveries. “The current situ ation is not tenable and de mands your action,” Siegel said. The decision to make Witherspoon Street one-way was not one that was sup ported by most local mer chants, he added, since it was based on situations that no longer apply — the traf fic study that was done did not include Palmer Square streets, it assumed a twoway Chambers Street, and was considered using prepandemic traffic data “that does not represent current patterns, including on week ends and holidays,” he said. The campaign for new signage is called “Pop into Princeton.” Signs will be placed at various locations around town, as well as Washington and Harrison streets, to direct people to Princeton University’s ga rages and Williams Street lot, plus the garages on Spring, Chambers, and Hul fishPrincetonstreets.

Patients who come to Saint Peter’s experiencing a stroke can expect to receive an interdisciplinary plan of care that not only includes the doctors and nurses, but physical therapy specialists, nutritionists and pharmacists who help decide on the best medications for patients. To prevent the risk of having a second stroke, patients are evaluated for secondary risk factors while they are in the hospital. Once the patient goes home, Saint Peter’s staff follows up with them to see how they are“It’srecovering.important to get treatment as quickly as possible if you think you or a loved one is having a stroke. The acronym ‘BE FAST’ can help people remember what signs to look out for,” said Maria Bartman, BSN, RN, CEN, stroke coordinator at Saint Peter’s and chair of Saint Peter’s Stroke Committee.
As for COVID-19, “People are acting as if it’s over,” said Ferdinando. “Any observer will agree with that, but this year the coronavirus is the fourth leading cause of death in the U.S., behind heart disease, cancer, and accidents in all forms, and ahead of lung diseases, pneumonia, and many other diseases.”Hecontinued, “No one would say, ‘Heart disease is not a problem anymore. Cancer’s not a problem anymore.’ No one would say ‘Lung infections are no longer a problem.’ People are acting like it’s over, but the numbers do not say that.” DiFerdinando pointed out that people with heart issues take medications, exercise, get their blood pressure checked. “They do all these interventions to make sure they don’t have heart problems. We have to think about COVID like that — not in panic mode or denial, but somewhere in between.” He noted the value of vaccinations and boosters, proper ventilation at indoor gatherings, and judicious maskwearing when appropriate. Health departments, he added, need to make an extra effort to address underserved populations. “There is plenty of data from the COVID pandemic that persons of color and persons of lower income have consistently had less access, especially less early access, to different vaccines and treatment types,” he said. “So in parts of Mercer County and other parts of the state you have to make an extra push to reach those populations. It’s one of the lessons learned again and again from COVID. Even if you think you’re doing a good enough job, you may be missing a substantial part of the population.”

“It’s an honor for Saint Peter’s to be consistently recognized for the care we deliver to patients experiencing a stroke,” said Roger Behar, M.D., neurologist and medical director of the Stroke Program at Saint Peter’s University Hospital. “Time is of the essence when someone is having a stroke and this recognition signifies our dedication to providing high-quality stroke care as quickly as possible.”

To the Editor: Like so many social justice-centered organizations in the greater Mercer County area, the Princeton-Blairstown Center (PBC) was fortunate to benefit from the leadership, support, and advocacy of the Rev. David McAlpin, who passed away on August 5, 2022. We join the community in recognizing the tremendous impact he had on our com munity over the past seven decades. As the associate pastor of Witherspoon Presbyterian Church, he became keenly aware of discriminatory hous ing practices affecting African Americans and he helped to establish two acclaimed integrated housing developments: Glen Acres and Maplecrest.
Had On Community Over Seven Decades
THARAGlenviewELLSWORTHDrive
He and his family moved to Detroit in 1970 where he served as a pastor working on civil rights issues and estab lishing affordable housing organizations. When he returned to Princeton in the early 1980s, he helped found the Tren ton chapter of Habitat for Humanity in 1986 and served as president of the board. He also served as board chair of PBC as well as on the boards of the Princeton Area Community Foundation, The New Jersey Association on Correction, The Stony Brook Millstone Watershed Association, The Historical Society of Princeton, and Union Theological Seminary in New York City. He received numerous community awards including the 2017 Frank Broderick Award from PBC for his deep commitment to social justice, compassion, and selflessness. The enormous impact of Rev. McAlpin’s leadership and support of social justice causes will be felt for many decades to come. The board, staff, and the young people of the Cen ter are eternally grateful to this gentle servant leader and philanthropist. We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family and friends.

To the Editor: As a rising senior in high school, planning for my future and beginning to make my own choices, having the au tonomy to decide what is the best path forward for myself is paramount. So to watch the end of protections for abor tions, be it from the Supreme Court, or from numerous state legislatures in their efforts to ban and criminalize abortion (according to the Guttmacher Institute, nearly half the states could be in this boat), is frightening because it is the stripping away of the basic freedom to choose and have bodily autonomy, autonomy that is so critical to planning our futures. Therefore I am immensely grateful to our state legislature for passing both A-3975/S-2633 and A-3974/S-2642, bills that protect a patient’s reproductive medical records from scrutiny, and that prevent the extradition of anyone who comes to New Jersey seeking an abortion. By taking this critical step, they have protected the crucial autonomy and freedom for so many people. However, we can’t just stop in New Jersey, we must also look more broadly. Urge your lawmakers to pass laws that broaden access to reproductive health care services and that recodify Roe into our national existence. We may see this as not our problem, but until we secure the right of reproductive health care access and autonomy for everyone in this country, it is not safe.
The combination of the bird’s-eye view and Paris as the great seductress brought back thoughts of Balzac, his death, Hugo’s oration at Père La Chaise cemetery and one of the greatest moments in The Human Comedy, the conclusion of Père Goriot
“
The View Cooper makes a more significant contribution to Divided Paris as the travel writer who came there to live in 1826 and wrote about it in Gleanings from Europe : France (1837). Reading his description of the city viewed from the heights of Montmartre, I was reminded of the skies and landscapes Balzac admired in novels like The Prairie Cooper feels “fortunate in our sky, which was well veiled in clouds, and occasionally darkened by mists.” After admitting that “a bright sun may suit particular scenes and moods,” he finds that, “as a rule, clouds, and very frequently, a partial obscurity, greatly aid a landscape,” which is “yet more true of a bird’s-eye view of a grey old mass of walls, which give up their confused and dusky objects all the better for the absence of glare. I love to study a place teeming with historical recollections, under this light; leaving the sites of memorable scenes to issue, one by one, out of the grey mass of gloom, as time gives up its facts from the obscurity of ages.”
Balzac, of course, had said it all before —from Dividing Paris O n August 18, 1850, Honoré de Balzac died in “the very pretty little house” he’d made for himself in the portion of a mansion that had “escaped demolition.” Victor Hugo’s description of Balzac’s last residence could have come from the pages of Esther da Costa Meyer’s Dividing Paris: Urban Renewal and Social Inequality: 1852-1870 (Princeton University Press), where demolition is a fact of life. Squalor and Splendor The first reference to a specific work by Balzac in Dividing Paris concerns an area “vividly described” in Cousine Bette (1846), a section of the city “wiped out” so that Napoleon III’s prefect GeorgesEugène Haussmann “could build the BoulevardCuriousMalesherbes.”toreadthe passage mentioned, I found the most likely suspect 60 pages into my copy of the 1965 Penguin edition, in which Balzac describes a “conglomeration of houses ... with decayed façades, ... all that remains of an old quarter, in process of demolition since the day when Napoleon decided to complete the Louvre.” It’s “a sombre and deserted block, inhabited presumably by ghosts,” the houses “wrapped in the perpetual shadow cast by the high galleries of the Louvre, blackened on this side by the north wind.” What Balzac refers to as “these so-called dwellings” are “bounded by a swamp on the rue de Richelieu side, a sea of jostling broken paving stones towards the Tuileries, small plots and sinister hovels facing the galleries, and steppes of dressed stone and half-demolished ruins by the old Louvre.” In the spirit of Rabelais, Balzac imagines that “for nearly forty years the Louvre has been crying from the open mouths of all the gashed walls, the gaping windows, ‘Strike these excrescences from my face!’ “ At this point Balzac puts his stamp on the passage and the city he’s reimagining for the ages: “One must suppose that the utility of this cut-throat place has been recognized, and the need to symbolize in the heart of Paris that intimate alliance of squalor and splendour which is characteristic of the queen of capital cities. Indeed, these stark ruins, ... the shocking hovels of the rue du Musée , the boarded enclosure where the street-stall vendors display their wares, may perhaps have a longer and more prosperous existence than three dynasties!”
Paris” — The
There’s no “perhaps” about the title character Lisbeth Fischer, who is still alive in literature two centuries after taking advantage of the “moderate rent” asked for rooms in “condemned houses.” And what made it possible for Bette to obtain a room with a view? The demolition of a “famous house” that once stood in the way. Side by Side Beautifully designed and illustrated, Divided Paris can be read side by side with Balzac, thanks to da Costa Meyer’s command of extraordinary material culled from art and literature, the archives of politics and society, and other histories of Parisian life. All you have to do is open the book, look around inside, and begin reading, and you know the commentary is going to revivify generic terms like “urban renewal” and “socialBalzacinequality.”entersDivided Paris in the second chapter (“Requiem”) along with his favorite American novelist James Fenimore Cooper, the context being gletheforaphoricalofthethemythicalracializednization,task“civilizingHaussmann’smission,aofinteriorcolo-drivenbythefantasyofaPariswherepoorthreatenedlivesandspacestherich.”Themet-frameworkthisdepictionofinnercityasajun-inhabitedbyIndians was provided by Cooper’s The Last of the Mohicans, which had been translated into French in 1826. For this reader, there’s a special pleasure in the appearance of the New-Jersey-born creator of Natty Bumppo and Chingachgook. On the issue of “social inequality,” Balzac is quoted comparing Paris to “a forest peopled by twenty different tribes of red Indians ... who all live by hunting the prosperous classes.” A more characteristic example of what Balzac takes from Cooper is his sketch of Bette as “the Mohican whose snares are inescapable, whose thoughts are impenetrably dissembled, whose swift decisions are reached on the evidence brought by senses developed to perfect keenness.”
All Paris In his oration at Balzac’s funeral, August 21, 1850, Hugo said: “Unknown to himself, whether he wished it or not, whether he consented or not, the author of this immense and strange work is one of the strong race of Revolutionist writers. Balzac goes straight to the goal. Body to body he seizes modern society; from all he wrests something, from these an illusion, from those a hope; from one a catch-word, from another a mask. He ransacked vice, he dissected passion. He searched out and sounded man, soul, heart, entrails, brain, — the abyss that each one has within himself.”While Hugo was speaking from the grave site at Père La Chaise, “the sun set and all Paris appeared in the distance in the splendid haze of the setting orb.” Cooper’s “beautiful text” on the view from Montmartre avoids phrasing like “splendid haze” and “setting orb,” but “All Paris” means everything coming from Hugo, especially knowing that at that moment he’s standing where Balzac’s Eugene Rastignac stood after the burial of Father Goriot. Gazing out from the highest part of the cemetery, Rastignac saw Paris “spread out below on both banks of the winding Seine. Lights were beginning to twinkle here and there. His gaze fixed almost avidly upon the space that lay between the column of the Place Vendome and the dome of the Invalides; there lay the splendid world that he wished to gain. He eyed the humming hive with a look that foretold its despoliation, as if he already felt on his lips the sweetness of its honey, and said with superb defiance, “It’s war between us now!” Translations and Regrets The passages quoted from Cousine Bette and Pere Goriot were translated by Marion Ayton Crawford. The regrets are for not being able to do justice to the riches of Divided Paris , which I began reading less than a week ago. One of the special pleasures of the book is da Costa Meyer’s refreshingly diverse range of quotations, which remind me of Walter Benjamin’s great compendium, The Arcades Project , a volume I keep close at hand, as I will Divided Paris , which contains a passage from Franz Kafka I’ve saved for the end. It’s from the chapter titled “Requiem,” where the lost cities within the city are both mourned and manifested. Kafka’s Paris W e walk through the broad streets of the newly built town. But our steps and our glances are uncertain. Inside we tremble just as before in the ancient streets of our misery. Our heart knows nothing of the slum clearance which has been achieved. The unhealthy old Jewish town within us is far more real than the new hygienic town around us. With our eyes open we walk through a dream: ourselves only a ghost of a vanished age.”

BOOK REVIEW
“In Cooper’s beautiful text,” da Costa Meyer comments, “a benevolent and compliant nature collaborates with history in a world that providence has rendered meaningful.” She sees Cooper’s account “in contrast to the stubborn opacity of Paris under the glum, secular gaze” of the photographer Nadar, whose “despairing cry underscores the role of fantasy in the construction of memory and suggests that the object of desire was in part the city itself, the great seductress.”

But as Laurie’s world continues to crumble around her, she begins to question whether her accusation is justified or if she is just in search of an easy villain in her own increasingly compli cated story. Third is a tale of relation ships, aging, politics, and forgiveness.“Theplay takes place dur ing the academic year of 2002-2003 and the unrest of that time holds many par allels to our present. Was serstein smartly uses that unrest as a backdrop to her story of a woman coming to terms with her place both within society and within her surrounding world,” said Director Erin Leder. “I love this play because it is, at its heart, a story to which many generations can relate.”

“Growing Sideways: School Days” Exhibit Opens at PDS Sept. 7 A new exhibit, “Growing Sideways: School Days,” fea turing work by Catalina Schli ebener, opens at Princeton Day School on September 7, with a planned public recep tion at the Anne Reid ’72 Gal lery on Thursday, September 15 from 5 to 7 p.m. The ex hibit will be on view through DecemberSchliebener9. is a Chileanborn, Brooklyn-based artist who works in varying formats that include collage, largescale mural, and multi-media installation. The artist begins their creative process by care fully extracting imagery from cartoons, coloring books, “GROWING SIDEWAYS: SCHOOL DAYS”: Works by Catalina Schliebener will be on view Septem ber 7 through December 9 at the Anne Reid ’72 Gallery at Princeton Day School. A public recep tion is planned for September 15 from 5 to 7 p.m. etiquette and craft guides, and other found sources. They assemble playful and fluid strands of collage that journey along lengths of gallery wall, interacting with hand-drawn graphite lines and enlarged vi nyl forms. Specific objects that have been altered or adjusted in curious and alluring ways rest in various places around the gallery – drawing elements from the walls into the third dimension.Thelocker doors, classroom desks, and projectors used in this exhibition are all sourced from Princeton Day School’s campus through various de cades of technological in novation and design. Each object offers the viewer an entry-point into another visual experience and into another time and place. The title of the exhibition comes from theo rist Kathryn Bond Stockton’s 2009 book The Queer Child, or Growing Sideways in the Twentieth Century, a study of non-traditional developmental trajectories. Inspired by Stock ton’s writing, Schliebener leads the viewer through a personal and relatable journey back through the abstraction of childhood.Inherreview of one of Schliebener’s first iterations of “Growing Sideways” in New York City, N.Y., curated by John Chaich, critic Emily Colucci writes, “Childhood is weird. Not exactly a deeply analytical statement, I know, but it’s true. It’s hard to put a finger on childhood – that amorphous, scattershot of memories we form mainly as adults, adding meaning to the various stages of our devel opment.”
Colucci eloquently puts her finger on the manner in which Schliebener collides elements of time, location, and identity in their artmaking. Within the collage work on the wall, one sees a small child in early 20th century Norman Rockwell-esque attire reaching for a fragment of a face that is recognizable as Ursula the sea witch from the Disney movie The Little Mermaid. A car toon mop of hair and crown, perhaps cut from around the face of a princess, float atop a young child’s head as he leaps down a trail of tentacles, flow er pots, necklaces, ribbons and hands. This rollicking jumble offers viewers both culturally specific and ambiguous clues from which they can interpret what they wish and identify as theyForplease.children of any age whose internal sense of self does not perfectly align with the majority culture or for chil dren who may lack a mirroring of self in mainstream media, a cobbling together of identi fiers may occur to match in ternal and external worlds.

access
The concierge model offers Princeton Lifestyle Medicine patients additional benefits including access to the doctors’ emails, cell phone numbers, a private phone line, extended patient office visits, and same or next day appointments. Their patients see their physician not only as accomplished medical doctors, but health advocates, mentors, and even friends.
“The current insurance model is built upon a problem-based economic reimbursement that encourages doctors to address medical problems very quickly. This leads to most doctors rushing to see 25-30 patients per day in order to make ends meet…This is not how we have ever practiced. We always want to have the time to address the root cause of diseases that are preventable today.”

There’s a new trend in healthcare, and it’s gaining momentum in our area.
The Princeton Lifestyle Medicine Concierge Program is $1,500 per year. The fee can be paid monthly, quarterly, biannually, or annually, and credit cards are accepted as payment. All medical services are billed through the patient’s insurance company as usual. Princeton Lifestyle Medicine is located at 731 Alexander Road, Suite 201 in Princeton, New Jersey. For more information call 609.655.3800 or visit www.princetonlifestylemedicine.com.
“Our practice structure allows us to spend more time educating our patients about what may be going on with them medically,” the doctors explain. “We are better able to work with them as partners in their care and advocate for them with their specialists or if they are in the hospital. We provide tremendous support and guidance to them and their caretakers or family. We greatly value this enhanced communication with our patients. Princeton Lifestyle Medicine physicians include the two original founders, Dr. Lynne Kossow and Dr. Barbara Brown, as well as Dr. Francis Rehor who joined the practice in 2015.”
Lifestyle Medicine is a 21st century approach to healthcare that consolidates the very best characteristics of traditional medicine with the profound impact of lifestyle behaviors on health. Lifestyle Medicine is an evidence-based practice that has been shown to prevent, reverse, or slow down heart attacks, strokes, high blood pressure, diabetes, dementia, and some
Princeton Lifestyle medicine is also delighted to announce that Dr. Emily Kossow Sandberg joined the practice in April of 2022 as well. Concierge practices like Princeton Lifestyle Medicine focus the healthcare system on its most vital component: the patient-doctor relationship. The model emphasizes quality care instead of quick care, benefitting both parties. Princeton Lifestyle Medicine has the only physicians in the Princeton area who are board certified in both Internal Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine. As leaders in both concierge and Lifestyle medicine, it comes as no surprise that Princeton Lifestyle medicine is at the forefront of this effort, bringing Princeton into the future of healthcare.

By Sarah Emily Gilbert (Originally published in Princeton Magazine) or the past several years, Dr. Lynne B. Kossow, Dr. Barbara A. Brown, and Dr. Francis E Rehor have offered their patients far more than the traditional primary care practice. Most doctors see 25-30 patients per day for an average of 15 minutes, Drs. Kossow, Brown, and Rehor see 6-8 patients per day. In addition to providing treatment for acute illnesses, the doctors act as their clients’ healthcare coaches through Lifestyle Medicine, a scientific approach to patient wellness by effecting changes in areas such as diet, physical activity, and stress management. With the current shortage of primary care physicians and the abundance of high-volume practices, this type of individualized attention is rare. However, by switching to a concierge format, doctors like the ones at Princeton Lifestyle Medicine are able to practice medicine that consists of this broad-spectrum care. Concierge medicine, also known as retainer-based medicine, is an umbrella term for private medical care wherein patients pay an out-ofpocket fee in exchange for enhanced care. Born in the 1990s, concierge medicine was once thought of as a service for the wealthy that charged patients a lofty fee for luxury medicine. In recent years, it has evolved to accommodate patients across all income brackets, leading to expanding interest among patients and their primary care Accordingdoctors.toasurvey released by the American Academy of Private Physicians at the AAPP 2015 Fall Summit, more than 45 percent of 862 independent physicians would consider a concierge or similar membership model in the next three years. This may be due in part to our aging population needing increased and varied medical services, leading to an imbalanced patient/doctor ratio. The implementation of the Affordable Care Act has increased the number of insured patients, putting a further strain on primary care doctors. As a result, physicians are often unable to dedicate enough time to each patient. In the hopes of increasing both job and patient satisfaction in a financially sustainable way, primary care physicians are looking toward concierge medicine. “Where conventional medicine is failing is in the prevention and reversal of chronic diseases that are becoming an epidemic in the United States today,” explain the doctors.
cancers.Concierge Medicine
Concierge medical practices come in various forms, including those that reject insurance plans all together, but this is not the case for Princeton Lifestyle Medicine. All the doctors there accept insurance for all covered medical services. In addition, their patients pay an annual fee of $1,500 for the Lifestyle Medicine Concierge program, which gives them access to an elevated level of care. The founders of Princeton Lifestyle Medicine trained at the Institute of Lifestyle Medicine at Harvard Medical School. They are at the vanguard of their field, having lectured about their practice development model at The Institute of Lifestyle Medicine Conference in 2015. They are also members of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine and the American College of Physicians. They are among the first physicians to become board certified in Lifestyle Medicine, as well as maintaining their board certifications in internal medicine. This practice is unique in that it offers patients comprehensive conventional medical care combined with lifestyle counseling. Patients interested in a natural approach to disease prevention are provided in-depth, individualized coaching based on their needs. The doctors can assist with everything from quitting smoking to creating a manageable diet and exercise

Paterson’s Timepieces (So lar System) , in which time’s abstract nature is depicted in a series of clocks record ing the time on the eight planets in our solar system and on the Earth’s moon; on Mercury, for example, one day’s duration is 4,223 hours. The work reflects the immense differences in axial rotation between celestial bodies and reminds us that Earth is but one part of a solar system that is itself a part of a vast cosmos. To gether, these works explore how time is recorded and re membered and invite view ers to consider the tension between ephemerality and permanence.“Gathering these works together creates a space in which we can pause and consider the ways in which we mark time, both senti mentally and critically,” said James Steward, Nancy A. Nasher–David J.

“Time’s Relentless Melt” at Art on Hulfish Gallery The ways we grapple with time — its use as a measur ing tool for our lives, its na ture as both intangible and tangible, and its unceasing march forward — are the subject of the exhibition “Time’s Relentless Melt” at the Princeton University Art Museum. Curated by Kather ine Bussard, the Museum’s Peter Bunnell Curator of Photography, the exhibition will be on view through No vember 6 at Art on Hulfish, the Museum’s photo-forward gallery in downtown Princ eton.Deriving its title from Susan Sontag’s observa tion that “All photographs testify to time’s relentless melt” ( On Photography, 1977), the exhibition ex plores ideas and experiences around temporality, disrup tion, and delay. Featuring works created both before and during the COVID-19 pandemic — when people globally experienced time as stalled and disrupted — the exhibition speaks to the fluidity of time and how our perceptions shift both col lectively and as individuals. Works range from the scientific to the politi cal, including Andy Gold sworthy’s Scotland Hedge crawl / dawn / frost / cold hands / Sinderby, England / 4 March 2014, one of his seminal performances with nature, in which the labor of his body’s movements is juxtaposed with the peace ful silence of the country side; Zorawar Sidhu and Rob Swainston’s July 18, 2021, a woodblock print based on a widely circulat ed news photograph of the social distancing circles at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in Williamsburg Park, Brooklyn; and Katie

For instance, in his photo graphic series Birmingham Project, Dawoud Bey uses the diptych format, a de vice that often purposefully conjures time by pairing before and after moments. The series is a response to the 1963 white supremacist bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birming ham, Ala. Bey juxtaposes a photograph of a resident of Birmingham at the age of a child murdered that day with a resident who is 49 years older — the age that child would have been had they survived — to show the ag ing process and allude to its violent disruption. As the artist has reflected, “the past doesn’t stay in the past.”Other artists featured in the exhibition include Ale jandro Cesarco, Rich Frish man, Chris McCaw, Alison Rossiter, and Hiroshi Sugi moto, along with collabora tors Peter Fischli and David Weiss.The public is invited to an open house of the exhibition on Saturday, September 10, from 1 to 4 p.m. hosted by the exhibition’s curator and the Museum’s director. Addi tionally, Art Museum mem bers are invited to a mem bers-only open house with refreshments on Wednesday, September 20, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. On Thursday, Oc tober 27 at 5:30 p.m., artist Alison Rossiter will join Cu rator Katherine Bussard for a conversation about Rossiter’s work and its relationship to the themes of the exhibition.

“The No. 2 thing is that we have to stay healthy, we have already incurred two injuries,” said Driscoll, noting that sophomore Kayleen Gowers and senior Marissa Hart are sidelined due to injury. “Every team has its talent, every team has its depth. At some point your depth gets
Driscoll relishes the annual challenge of developing a team into a title contender. “It is a giant puzzle; you take all the pieces that have different shapes and you try to put them together and eventually you figure out what that puzzle is,” said Driscoll, who has guided the Tigers to three Ivy League crowns and four NCAA tournament appearances in his tenure. “At the end of the season, you throw that whole thing into the box and it scrambles up again.”
— Bill Alden
No matter how that puzzle comes together this fall, Driscoll is determined to savor the“Itprocess.isawonderful group to work with, I have enjoyed it,” said Driscoll. “I think COVID certainly refocused all of us. We keep reminding the team, it is a gift, privilege and honor to put on the jersey for the people who have played here before, the people that play after you, and the kids in the stands that are hoping to be you one day. You have to approach everything with tremendous gratitude. We have already had it taken away. Since that time, for me it is about appreciating the journey far more that the destination. I was always worried about where we were going to finish and not about what is going on today. It is let’s just appreciate it and every second we have together. I think we just need to grab it with both hands and take it a day at a time.”

“We got some pretty special abilities with the freshmen, they have a lot of speed, skill set, and physicality,” said Driscoll. “It is a really athletic group. They are exciting because each one of them gives you something different. As a bunch of different pieces, they give you a pretty cool puzzle.” In the midfield, the Tigers boast some skill in a group of veterans that includes junior Jen Estes (3 goals, 3 assists), junior Aria Nagai (4 assists), sophomore Lily Bryant (6 goals, 4 assists), senior Grace Sherman (1 goal), sophomore Ella Midura (1 goals, 1 assist), and sophomore Kate Toomey (2 assists).
While the Tigers may experience some growing pains this fall, he believes they have the depth to overcome that.

“We always have to value the culture and what matters most,” said Driscoll. “The reality is that you can only get to a certain level of accomplishment if you prioritize the things that are most important which are the non-negotiables on our team. It is being great teammates, being great human beings. We already know that they are great students and athletes, we have to prioritize the human element. We read the book Energy Bus this year. Every season we read a book and try to make that a priority for us. It is all about getting everybody on the bus and everyone buying into what we are doing and no one detracting from what needs to be there with the positive energy. You are either bringing to or detracting from where we are trying to go. There is no in-between, you can’t just exist.” That positive culture can help the squad get through the ebbs and flows of the season.“Things don’t always go perfectly and that is going to happen when classes start — the starting lineup is put out there and we have a game where don’t play as well as we would like,” said Driscoll. “In the end, you have to go back to what matters most and the non-negotiables chart the course. That, for me, is always going to be 100 percent theAnotherpriority.”priority for Driscoll is making sure the squad is fresh to keep players from getting hurt.

While Driscoll doesn’t want to ask too much of his freshmen, he believes his crew of newcomers, Drew Coomans, Kelsee Wozniak, Pietra Tordin, Ally Murphy, and Summer Pierson should spice up the Tiger offense.

“Jen is a returner at forward but we are probably moving her to midfield, she is doing really well there at the moment,” said Driscoll. “Aria is a high IQ kid who does a really good job for us. She will feature in there along with Lily. Grace was injured last year in our first training session; she is back and healthy. Kate is also showing pretty well. Jen and Ella just blew away the fitness test, they got the highest scores we have ever seen.”

tested and the good news is that if there are injuries, other people get an opportunity to play. But at the same time, once you start using some depth, you can’t incur more. Staying healthy for us will be really important.” If the Tigers can stay healthy, they have the chance to develop a winning chemistry.“The other piece for us is how well and how quickly this team meshes together — twothirds of the team is young by college standards,” said Driscoll.“We just need to figure out the right combinations and that will work itself out. Last year we had 15 different goal scorers.”
Y outh will be served this fall for the Princeton University women’s soccer“Thereteam.are a lot of new players, we are really, really young,” said Princeton head coach Sean Driscoll. “We have 17 freshmen and sophomores on the team and we have eight upperclassmen.” The young players are benefiting from the legacy left by the 2021 squad that went 15-3-1 overall and 6-1 Ivy on the way to making the second round of the NCAA tournament as the program returned to action after the 2020 season was canceled due to COVID-19 concerns.
“The culture of last year’s team has trickled to this year’s team,” said Driscoll, whose team opens the 2022 season by hosting Colgate on August 26 at Class of 1952 Stadium. “When you had COVID going on, there was a down time. The post-COVID year has given us a greater sense of appreciation and gratitude. In terms of culture, we are definitely farther ahead, just moving forward on last year.”

“We are talented attackingwise but we are different than we have been,” said Driscoll, whose team is looking forward to the opening of the new Roberts Stadium later this fall. “We have different skill sets, it is exciting. We have option A and we have option B. We have got options in certain situations and other options in different situations. We have a lot of pieces who we can play for different reasons. They have very different skill sets. When we make our rotations during the game, we are going to ask different questions of our opponents. It is going to be a different thing that people have to cope with.” At forward, Driscoll is looking for sophomore Heather MacNab (3 goals, 7 assists in 2021) and junior Lexi Hiltunen (4 goals, 3 assists) to cause problems for Princeton’s“Theyopponents.aredoing well,” said Driscoll. “They are both in good shape, they are both training hard.

“It is a good group,” said Driscoll. “It is older, we have some upperclassmen there.” At goalie, sophomore Tyler McCamey (0.26 goals against average, .917 save percentage in five games last fall) and senior Ella Gantman (0.00 GAA in one game) are vying for playing time. “They are pushing each other, they are both doing a good job,” said Driscoll.

Along the back line, senior Kamryn Lostau (1 goal, 1 assist), senior Morgan Wiese, senior Gracyn Kuerner, sophomore Ryann Brown, and sophomore Kiley Hamou along with freshmen Caroline Kane and Pia Beaulieu will shore up the Tiger defense.
A busy opening weekend, which includes a home game against Fairfield on August 28 in addition to the opener against Colgate on Friday, will give Princeton the chance to come tougher quickly. “They are both good programs and teams that I think will be in contention for their respective leagues,” said Driscoll of Colgate and Fairfield, where he coached before taking the helm of the Tigers in 2015. “We need to play teams that we feel will give us a challenge. I think everyone is going to give us test. When you are young, it is exciting but also you don’t know. We are relying upon our seniors and our upperclassmen to lead by example. We have to hope for a very quick maturation of these kids. A lot of our sophomores got many important minutes last year so I think that helps.”
Imparting Unforgettable
“I always thought I saw a lot, but I hope I would see half as much as he would see,” said Henderson. “To teach the game and teach them how to see and think for each other and how to get the best shot or the best cut on a possession to help somebody else, that was its own reward. That was the purpose and goal daily. The main charge was to teach them how to play, how to see, and that was always present. That was always the thing we talkedHendersonabout.” felt the ben efits of Carril’s teaching as a player. Henderson came to the Tigers with potential. He was extremely athletic — the New York Yankees drafted him out of high school — but developed well under Carril and his successor, Bill Car mody.“Coach Carril would talk to all of us before and after practice and he would bring you into the loop, and before your peers, talk about what you needed to work on,” said Henderson. “For me, it was very impactful. It was very hard-hitting. I got so much better. I would say I was light ly recruited. I was trying to pitch myself to Princeton, and by the time I graduated I got invited to every NBA camp.” It was the same for others. Carril famously was tough on his players, but they got better because he was such a great teacher of fundamen tals and how to dissect the game.“One of the things that he did for me as a player, he made me aware that I could see,” said former Tiger
HANDS-ON TEACHER: Former Princeton University men’s basketball head coach Pete Carril greets well-wishers in February 2009 before a ceremony where the main court at Jadwin Gym was officially renamed “Carril Court” in his honor. Hall of Famer Carril, who passed away at age 92 on August 15, left an indelible legacy on the players he guided.
Just as importantly, though, Carril was there for Earl when he started coaching as an assistant at Princeton. “He was great,” said Earl, now the head coach at Cor nell. “They used to make fun of him. They used to say he was like Yoda because he looked like Yoda when he was a coach, but he didn’t act like it. He would come in a couple times a week and we would sit and watch video together and he was like that. He would let me get to the answer but sort of guide me along. And so it was a completely differ ent personality at that point. Only a few times was he like, ‘This is the way you do it.’” Carril never backed down from playing a scholarship school even as the national scene grew more competitive after integration of southern schools in the late 1960s. He tweaked his offensive phi losophy to one of ball con trol and relied on his team’s skills to compete with what became known as the Princ eton offense. The result was the Tigers became a team no one looked forward to play ing, especially come NCAA tournament time. “Coach would say he was a pessimist, but we never went into a game not think ing we could win the game,” said Levy. “I look at it now as a coach, we had a plan and if we executed that plan, we were going to win. There were no two ways about it. If you lose, it wasn’t because they’re good players, it was because we didn’t execute our plan properly. There was al ways an answer for whatever a team threw at you.” Carril in retirement was a resource to his former play ers. Like Walters, Joe Scott was lucky enough to call Car ril his coach, mentor, and friend. The current Air Force head coach, Scott played for Carril, served as an assis tant under him, and eventu ally coached Princeton before also coaching Air Force and Denver all the while staying in close contact with Carril. “You can’t be like him, but I coach believing 100 percent in all of his philosophies,” said Scott. “His philosophies need to be taught, and this is what you learn, consistently.”
Often, Carril’s messages weren’t strategic in nature, but more about what he saw in players or recruits, how they could fit or contribute. Walters says that Carril was part sociologist, like his friend, the late renowned professor Marv Bressler.

“It was an incredible gift to have very much of a second chapter, a different time with him, not as a peer, but close,” said Henderson. “He would tell what he saw. But I had to ask him. He wouldn’t just say it. Then there were days I was having my own issues with my team or myself and he would say, ‘You should ask me what I see.’ I knew then it was like he had something to tell me, but he wasn’t going to just say it.” Carril may have cast a large shadow, but he also tried to keep a healthy distance. He was often seated up near the windows of the athletic direc tor’s office in the upper stands at Jadwin to take in Prince ton games after he stepped down. He returned from time to time while serving as an as sistant coach with the Sacra mento Kings for 10 seasons, then far more frequently to take in Princeton practices and games following his retirement from the NBA. “He was a visionary,” said Walters. “He was up in a spot where he could take every thing in, in a very objective way without being disturbed by people who were meaning ful friendly but didn’t under stand that he was there to watch the game.” Carril was honored in 2009 with the renaming of the bas ketball floor at Jadwin Gym to Carril Court. It was an honor that he publicly said he didn’t want to happen until after his death. Princeton enjoyed celebrating his achievements while he was still around, and his death now has prompted another wave of memories as players and coaches recall the legendary coach. “It gives you a chance to be grateful, to share,” said Scott. “I talked to John Thompson. He and I spoke twice. I talked to Howie. I talked to Bobby Scrabis twice. I talked to Chuck Yrigoyen, who was our SID when I played. We talked for a long time. I think it’s just going to happen more andPrincetonmore.” is said to be scheduling a ceremony to commemorate Carril in Sep tember, with more details to be released in the near future. Carril was passionate about basketball, about his teams at Princeton, and about the way to play the game. His influ ence continues on as others show how he saw the game.

“I went full circle with him,” said Walters. “I’m so fortunate. Without question, he’s the most influential men tor in my life. When I was in Reading, I think he saw a lot of himself in me with the cir cumstances we both grew up under and the way we played. He had a vision about what I could do that certainly ex ceeded my own sense of my own potential. I was really lucky to cross his path in my life.”Henderson was point guard on the final team that Car ril coached, a team remem bered for knocking defending national champion UCLA, a No. 4 seed, out of the 1996 NCAA tournament in the first round, 43-41, as a No. 13 seed on Gabe Lewullis’s backdoor layup in the clos ing seconds. It was Carril’s 514th win in 29 seasons at Princeton.WhenHenderson was hired back to his alma mater as head coach in 2011, Carril gave him a card that simply said, “Think. See. Do.” He let that message sink in with Henderson, who knew what Carril meant.

After Season for Princeton Baseball, Emus Enjoys Superb Summer in Cape Cod League

SUMMER HEAT: Jackson Emus fires a pitch this past spring in his sophomore season for the Princeton University baseball team. Emus enjoyed a big summer competing in the high-powered Cape Cod Baseball League. He posted a 0.52 ERA in 13 appearances for the Hyannis Harbor Hawks with 21 strikeouts in 17 innings.

Emus trains at Cressey Performance in Hudson, Mass., which also is the training grounds for Cleveland Guardians pitcher Aaron“He’sCivale.aguy who in the big leagues, as the game is trending more towards these high velocity guys, he’s low 90s but he executes every single pitch,” said Emus. “He’s a high level executer on the mound with four or five different pitches, they all move differently and have different speeds. Coming into the spring, I thought that was a strength of mine and I kind of got away from it a little bit. It’s about getting back to that process of executing different pitches to different parts of the zone that move differently at different speeds. That was definitely something I knew I could do a better job of, to throw more strikes and help me miss more bats.”
“This summer, I’ve really wanted to focus on giving the hitter my best stuff,” said Emus, a 6’5, 240-pound native of Clinton, Mass. “I’ll live and die with playing my game. So far, it’s worked out.”Emus and the Tigers had a roller-coaster spring last year in their return from the COVID-19 pandemic canceling the 2021 Ivy League seasons. Emus went 2-6 with a 4.76 ERA in 12 appearances, 11 as a starter. It was his first season of college baseball due to injury and the pandemic. His ERA was outstanding through the first couple games of the year, shot up, and then was working its way down until his final outing of the year.
“I thought early on, coming from a smaller program, playing with a lot of SEC/ ACC guys, maybe not having the type of spring that I wanted to, that I had to leave my impression right away with the team as to why I was someone that deserved to be there, someone that they wanted to keep on the roster,” said Emus.
The successful summer also has him more confident that he can continue to pursue his goal of
“I definitely think I have a skill set that would lend itself to success as a starter down the road, but right now especially in the Cape and going forward in my career, whatever I can do that’s going to take me to the next level in the game and whatever role that may be, I’m more than comfortable doing that,” said Emus. “My goal is to play major league baseball and hopefully play there as long as possible. I obviously need to keep improving year to year, but at least where I’m standing right now I think I have a skill set that would be conducive to success as a starter. If down the road it comes to where I’ll be most successful in the bullpen, that’s more than OK with me. I love to play, I love to pitch. At the end of the day, innings are innings. That was my approach coming into the summer too. Staying diligent to my process and performing on the field are the priorities and the role and whatever the team needs will sort itself out.”
“When our season ended, I had about three weeks at home between when I left school and when I had to report to the Cape. I kind of had to do a bit of soul searching and re-evaluate what went right and what went wrong from this past spring.”Coming to the Cape League — one of the most prestigious collegiate summer leagues — helped to motivate him. Emus knew he had to be better to be able to contribute in the league.
Emus proved himself over the Cape season to a reliable part of what was labeled an elite bullpen for the Harbor Hawks. He did not allow a run through his first nine games and opponents were hitting just .136 against him through that stretch.

He has enjoyed the experience of being a part of the league now as a college player, even teaming up with longtime friend and now fellow Ivy competitor Jay Driver of Harvard. It’s been a wellrounded summer for Emus. “The off days are always huge for getting to explore a little bit, getting to relax with some of our teammates,” said Emus. “ On off days, we’ve gone to the beach, played mini golf, we’ve gone to a Red Sox game, all sorts of fun stuff. It’s been really cool getting to meet so many different guys from across the country, from a bunch of different programs, some really talented dudes. It’s really a cool experience and cool environment to be a part of.”
“For me, it came down to executing every single pitch better, sequencing hitters better, utilizing my strengths as a pitcher,” said Emus. “My pitches move a lot, and I can attack four quadrants of the zone with four different speeds. I took a step back and tried to think a little better throughout outings and I’m trying to execute each pitch off of each other, I think those were some really big adjustments that I made coming into the summer that have helped me have a lot of success.” Emus has helped the Hawks enjoy a big bounce-back season. The Hawks were trying to go worst to fi rst over two seasons. After going 8-28 last year, Emus joined a Hyannis Harbor team that sat in first for part of the season before fi nishing the regular season 16-6 and third in the West Division. They won their playoff first-round series, 2-1, with a 15-5 Game 3 win on August 6 over the secondplace finisher Cotuit Kettleers to earn a best-of-three game series for the West Division title against the first-place fi nisher Bourne Braves. The Hawks ended up getting swept by the Braves who went on to win the league title.“It’s special to be a part of the Cape League and the tradition of all the great players that have come through here,” said Emus. “It’s even more special when you’re on a team that’s as successful as ours. Not many people get to say they were Cape champions, so hopefully if things continue to go well for us, I can include myself in that group of people that have won a championship on the EmusCape.”never thought much about the numbers that he could put up in the Cape League. He focused more on improving his mindset and approach to pitching to get back on track. “I try to as much as possible focus on the process more than anything and let the results take care of themselves,” said Emus. “I thought coming out of the spring, I had that three-week reset period that gave me a chance to reset and refocus on being very diligent with my process with how I approach a game and how I work on pitching between outings and things like that. The results have obviously been something to be really happy with, but more so I came into the summer with the expectation I’d be extremely diligent to the process that I want to follow.” Emus is hoping that he can bring back that process and his success to Princeton this year and see a similar turnaround in the Tigers, who won just seven games last spring. Princeton had a young group last year that is hoping to use its experience for a big “Obviouslyjump.last season as a whole was pretty frustrating,” said Emus. “We as a team want to change a lot of things about how we performed on the field. We certainly have the pieces to be a very good team. If you look at our lineup, there are probably five or six guys that hit over .300. If you look at the raw numbers, a lot of guys hit really well this year. There are other guys that had a bit more of an up and down spring that I think we can expect to have a really strong spring this upcoming year. On the pitching side, a lot of guys are going to take another step forward, especially out of our starting rotation. As a team, the biggest improvement we can take care of through our preparation is playing more clean defense and seeing if we can get a big boost from the incoming freshman class too.”Emus has been locating his pitches better and mixing them as well. It has helped that he has found confidence in all of his pitches so he has a full arsenal to use on hitters.“I had really worked on improving my slider because over the spring it was a pitch I struggled with so I didn’t really have a consistent slider this spring,” said Emus. “That period between spring ball and going to the Cape, I was able to clean some things up with my delivery, refine my slider and that pitch has been a huge lift for me in addition to the other adjustments I made.” Emus, who also brought offense to the Tigers as a .318 hitter with 28 hits in 88 at-bats including a homer and 9 RBIs, was completely focused on his pitching this summer in the Cape League. This summer’s success will help him return to Princeton more confident in his pitching.“I think it’s been extremely important,” said Emus. “It’s one thing to just have success against some of the best competition in the country. It’s hard not have confidence when you experience success in that situation. Kind of more personally, growing up in Massachusetts, when I was younger my family would come to the Cape in the summer. Playing in the Cape has always been something of a dream of mine. Getting to come here and be a part of a league with so much tradition and have
While Emus excelled as a reliever in the Cape League, he will return as a starter to the Princeton rotation with plans to use the same approach and variety to his advantage going forward.

His 0.52 ERA and 21 strikeouts in 17 innings of work was a testament to getting back to trusting and executing his variety of pitches.
“This was kind of the first spring where I went through things a bit, had some struggles, had an up-and-down spring,” said Emus, reflecting on a season which saw Princeton go 7-33 overall and 3-18 Ivy League.

“Ben, Travis, and Tyler at the corners; we rotate be tween those three and then the safeties are Ryan, Ellinton, and Wyatt,” said Gallagher. In Gallagher’s view, excel ling in the trenches on both sides of the ball is a key to success for PHS. “I am happy with our of fensive line, it is a strength,” said Gallagher. “Our tail back is only as good as the offensive line. If the offensive line is moving people, Tyler is going to get rushing yards. He is a real running back. On defense, we had a fresh man that was the leading tackler last year in Judah. Anthony, our second leading tackler, was a sophomore. These guys have a year un der their belts, they are go ing to get more tackles this year. I think we are probably more athletic on the defen sive side of the ball.”
“We are going with three down linemen on the defen sive this year,” said Galla gher. “Our noseguard is a sophomore, Leo Sarett. Our defensive ends will be Cal lahan, Angelucci, Richter, and Wilton. We will rotate; to get guys off the field is im portant. You want fresh guys running after the passer.”

Gallagher loves the turnout he has gotten this fall with a roster of 49 players. “We have good numbers, it is one of our better years,” said Gallagher, who guided the Tigers to a 2-7 record last fall. “We have a good num ber of freshmen who have comeLastout.”Friday, the Tigers put in a good effort as it tuned up with a tri-scrimmage at Millburn.“Itwas nice,” said Gallagh er. “I always feel offensively it takes us a little time to get go ing and rightfully so but even in this scrimmage, we did make some real positive gains.” Dealing with the void left by the graduation of star quarterback Jaxon Petrone, Gallagher realizes it might take a little time for his of fense to get in synch as a trio of players, junior Ben Walden, sophomore Brady Collier, and sophomore Tra vis Petrone, are competing at “IQB.have got three guys vy ing for it and they are three good athletes,” said Galla gher. “It is a quarterbackdriven league. We may have to platoon them or whatever until we find the guy that is going to hit the right stride.”
As for the linebacking crew, the Tigers boast a sol id group in sophomore Ju dah Marks, sophomore Joe George, junior Anthony Fa miglietti, sophomore Elisio Moncada, freshman Jheki Gordon, and Pease. “We have got have two guys in the middle; Judah led our team in tackles last year as a freshmen with 49 tackles,” said Gallagher. “He is a solid kid. Joe did a nice job in our scrimmage. He handled himself pretty well. He had a great offseason, he is the strongest kid on our team. We are going to take one of our middle lineback ers from last year, Anthony, and move him outside. We have got three guys who will be rotating there with Evan, Elisio, and Jheki.”

Junior Tyler Goldberg is hitting his stride at tailback. “Tyler looks really good, he is going to be our bell cow,” said Gallagher. “From the beginning, even in the sum mer, he has done a great job for us. He had a good scrim mage at Millburn. He looked really good and had a couple ofTotouchdowns.”addvariety to the rush ing game, PHS will also be using junior Evan Pease at running back. “Evan is a real big, tall, fast kid; he played some lax this year and played some football for us last year,” said Gallagher. “We are hoping he will be a change of pace. Tyler is more of a shifty running back and this kid is more just one cut and go to the hole.”
Charlie Gallagher has re ceived his players undivided attention this month as the Princeton High football team has gone through its pre season practices. With football kicking off earlier than the other fall sports under the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association (NJSIAA) Week 0 scheduling format, the squad has trained in solitude. “It is great, we are the only team out there; we have al ready had 12 practices and field hockey and soccer start this Monday,” said PHS head coach Gallagher, whose team opens its 2022 campaign by playing at Lawrence High on August 26. “It is nice, we have a game on Friday and we still have no school. There is a little more flexibil ity here. I can go home and work on my football. They are going to have their sec ond game and they are still not even in school. I love it.”

Gallagher is happy with how the line is coming to gether.“Jack played center last year and broke his leg and has made a tremendous comeback; from day one, he is out there on the field, no ifs, ands, or buts,” said Gallagher.“Hehad a great offseason, he rehabbed that leg. He had the surgery the day after the injury and from day one, he was on the road to recov ery. He was a really good center but we moved him to left tackle. At the left guard spot, we have a sophomore in Sean and I am really ex cited about this kid. He was a really good thrower for our track team as a freshman. Our center right now, Isaiah, was one of our guards last year. Jake has moved from tight end down to the guard spot and we are really happy with him. He can move a lot of guys around, he is much bigger than he was last year. Jake had a great offseason; he was at camp all summer but he worked out and came in shape and ready to go.”
The secondary will feature backs and receivers doing double duty.
On the defensive line, Gal lagher will be mixing and matching to get the most out of his talent.

I was good friends with the athletic director’s family. I used to go to practices and hang out and shoot around. I grew up playing with the kids who were on Costellocampus.”wenton to play soccer, basketball, and baseball at Cornwall Central High and then competed in soccer at University of Rhode Island and the University of Scranton. After working briefly for a media firm in New York City, Costello returned to athletics and academics, teaching and coaching at The Shipley School in the Philadelphia area. He then had two stints coaching at the college level, serving as an assistant for the Appalachian State and Belmont women’s hoops programs. Costello then returned to Shipley to coach and work in the school’s admissions office. In order to sharpen his business acumen, he left Shipley to serve as the general manager of the Maplezone Sports Institute in Aston, Pa. But, missing being around athletics in a private school environment, Costello came to the Hun School this summer where he will be serving as the co-director of athletics and the head coach of the girls’ basketball team.
Drawn by Love for Sports, Private School Environment, Costello Comes to Hun as Co-AD, Girls’ Hoops Coach member of a school community as a kid and I really valued it.”
With the school year about to start, Costello has the desire to develop the deep connections with the Hun community that he forged at “TheShipley.journey of my career has gone through the relationships I have been able to build,” said Costello. “I grew at Shipley, I moved into different departments. As a result, I was able to learn a lot more about the school and the importance of the different departments. I want that here. I want to meet everybody. I want to know what makes them tick, I want to know what they are passionate about and how our athletic department can partner with them. I want to meet the families and the community. It fires me up. It is what really excites me. I do love sports obviously but the thing I love most about sports is the relationships it allows you to create. That is the payoff for educators, getting to see the students that you taught at an older age and how much success they have had and what they have learned from their time here.” Bill Alden 9 Hulfish Street,
Aiming to bolster the girls’ hoops program, Costello started coaching the Philadelphia Belles, a U12 AAU team. Building that program into a national runner-up helped make Shipley into a powerhouse and led Costello to give college coaching a try in 2014. He served as an assistant at Appalachian State women’s hoops team for one season and then took a similar post with the Belmont University program for one Whilecampaign.Costello enjoyed the higher level coaching, he longed for the independent school setting. “It was a great experience, but college is much different than the prep world,” said Costello, who helped Belmont win a conference title and make the NCAA tournament. “I really missed seeing the good growth of kids at this age and helping them get to the next level. I enjoy running my own program at schools like Shipley or Hun which are really good places. You are bringing kids into a really good product and are able to get them to the next point so I ended up going back to Shipley.”
After a superb soccer career at Scranton where he was an All-Conference performer and team captain, Costello opted to take a hiatus from campus life and headed to Manhattan where he worked as an assistant buyer for a media firm.
In 2007, Costello came to the campus of The Shipley School where he wore a variety of hats as he studied for a teaching certificate in health and physical education at West Chester University.“Iwas JV girls basketball coach, assistant boys varsity soccer coach, and an assistant varsity softball coach at that point,” recalled the bearded Costello with a smile. “My role kind of kept evolving. I was coaching while I was getting my teaching cert and then they hired me out of my student teaching as a lower school PE teacher and coach. I then got into the admissions office and then became an associate athletic director. I kept moving up, I was the varsity girls soccer and varsity girls’ basketball coach.”
During his 18 months at Maplezone, Costello ran tournaments, managed the seven turf fields at the complex, attracted new rentals, and oversaw renovations to the facility, among other tasks.“Itended up working out really well, it was so different; I went from working at a nonprofit to a total forprofit,” said Costello, who earned a master’s degree in strategic leadership and a certificate in entrepreneurship from Rosemont College in 2019. “It was totally driven by the dollar — how do we optimize our space, how do we got more rentals in, how do we run our baseball tournaments? It really did satisfy the need for me to grow in those areas of management and dealing with budgetary constraints. I had done pretty much every job I could do at a school, now I was getting to manage an organization. I had to answer to a board about our numbers. I had to do projections. It was very business heavy. I would not be as confident as I am now in this role if I hadn’t made thatServingmove.”asan assistant coach for the girls’ soccer team at Newark Charter School (Del.) while running Maplezone, Costello started pursuing AD opportunities and ended up at Hun, who was looking for someone to succeed retiring co-AD Bill Quirk. “I was a finalist for a number of AD positions; I was offered other jobs but I was familiar with Hun,” said Costello, noting that his Shipley basketball team had played at Hun several times over the years. “It is gorgeous, I had been on campusCostellobefore.”islooking forward to the joint effort of running the Hun athletics

I want to see how things operate first. We are trying to figure out how to utilize each of our strengths and helping one another. We are going to grow into it. I am excited. Tracey is great — she is doing a lot of stuff, trying to catch me up to speed. There is already such a great foundation for where the program is at and we are just looking for ways that we can make the student-athlete experience as strong as possible.”Inaddition, Costello is pumped up to work on strengthening the Hun girls’ hoops team, building on the foundation laid by longtime coach Bill Holup, who stepped down after the 2021-22 campaign.

But often, it becomes a catch all for the belongings we tend to collect as we’re coming and going. With some organizing and design tips, your entryway can make a great first impression and remain a convenient storage spot. • Hang a mirror to reflect light and make your space look bigger. This works especially well if you have a small or narrow foyer. • Organize your entryway with a bench with hooks and cubbies to hang coats and to store bags or backpacks. • A simple console table can be accessorized with artwork, photos, or a tray to hold keys and other small items. • Bring in an element of the outdoors with plants or flowers. • Seasonal or holiday decorations can complement the décor in the rest of your home.Sales Representative/Princeton Residential Specialist, MBA, ECO Broker Princeton Office 609 921 1900 | 609 577 2989(cell) | info@BeatriceBloom.com | BeatriceBloom.com Employment Opportunities in the Princeton Area ADVERTISING SALES Witherspoon Media Group is looking for a part-time advertising Account Manager, based out of our Kingston, NJ office, to generate sales for Town Topics Newspaper and Princeton Magazine The ideal candidate will: • Establish new sales leads and manage existing sales accounts for both publications • Develop industry-based knowledge and understanding, including circulation, audience, readership, and more. • Collaborate with the advertising director and sales team to develop growth opportunities for both publications Track record of developing successful sales strategies and knowledge of print and digital media is a plus.
