For Whom Should We Be For?
When I was an undergraduate at Princeton University, it had a slogan, “Princeton in the Nation’s Service.” I remember wondering whether that was the way a university should look at itself, failing to consider what the nation might be in service to? Yesterday, I got a form email from the dean of Princeton”s Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs that bore the slogan “In Service to the Nation and Humanity.” I think this is a big improvement.
