Our fourth key area focuses on campus life and the student experience. In short, it's about creating a Princeton experience grounded in well-being. By building mental health support into academics, expanding options for PDF classes/distribution
requirements, improving dining flexibility, and streamlining processes like
housing and CPS, we'll give students more time to focus on what matters.
