It’s important to conquer white spaces that don’t always favor difference. Take control, apply, succeed, and repeat. Check out our latest video about black student life on campus and get an insight into what it means to be black at a PWI. #ivyleague #princeton2023 #blackhistorymonth #blackexcellence

79 Questions with Princeton Resources | Woke Wednesdays | Princeton University
Happy finals season! Take a little study break and remind yourself of the resources available through the university in this week's new, informative video.
At a University like Princeton, where resources are plentiful, it can be overwhelming to understand and approach the multitude of resources available. Through this interactive video, inspired by Vogue’s 73 Questions, we explore the people and places behind the very resources vital to enhancing student life for every type of student and their trauma.
The following is a list of resources for Princeton students. Even if you aren’t a Princeton student, look into the resources your school provides. You may find something you weren’t even aware of. Learn to navigate the resources given to you, and find what works for you, whether it’s talking to a friend, spending time alone, or seeing a therapist.

Affinity Spaces | Woke Wednesdays
The affinity spaces of Princeton’s Carl A. Fields Center for Equality and Cultural Understanding (CAF) provide students of color from various backgrounds (such as Middle Eastern, Latinx, or black identities) a place to study, socialize, and feel comfortable in having their own space on campus. This is not always the case, however; many students who occupy these spaces have faced difficulties with other students who do not identify with their affinities coming into the space, disrespecting and locking students out and even refusing to leave when asked to. Watch the video to hear about the experiences of Princeton students, and how this issue is affecting POC on campus.
How can we fix this?
While it is an institutional responsibility to encourage and remind students of color and marginalized groups that they belong here by making them feel comfortable and accepted, it is also the responsibility of minority students to take up the space provided at the CAF. It is the first step to having more space on campus.
