felicidad Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Would the Princeton acceptances step up to the plate? I didn't apply, as I did my UG there. I'm just curious to see what my alma mater's 2013 cohort will look like. What are you guys studying? Who do you want to work with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just curious to see what my alma mater's 2013 cohort will look like. What are you guys studying? Who do you want to work with? I'm not in soc but I just saw this thread on the main forum page. What year did you graduate? I did my UG there too....class of 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splitends Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Got accepted, but not sure that I want to attend. So many things about the program seem appealing, but I can't fathom living in Princeton, NJ for 5-6 years... If I did go to Princeton, I would want to work with Viviana Zelizer and Paul DiMaggio, maybe Paul Starr. I don't know-- any thoughts on life there?

socscholar Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Apparently most Princeton grads live in Brooklyn, usually once they've taken comps and only need to be on campus 1-2 a week to teach or meet with profs. In a sense, it seems like the ideal mix of urban and suburban... No distractions when orals loom, NYC to keep you from having only undergrads to socialize with...
