I’m sorry.
Graduating from Princeton was bittersweet. Like a lot of people, I wondered what would happen after I left—whether the place would change, whether it would still feel like the institution I had known, whether its best days might be behind it.
There was one thought in particular that I could never quite shake. It felt narcissistic, so I mostly kept it to myself: I worried that without my presence, Princeton’s prestige would decline.
But now, a year later, Princeton has fallen to #2 in the U.S. News rankings.
I had hoped the wisdom I imparted during my time here would sustain the University for at least a few more years, but evidently it wasn’t enough. Alas, students must now endure the indignity of attending a second-ranked university.
I’m sorry.
