Westminster Foundation To Hold Public Meeting On Survival of Campus With Rider University planning to move Westminster Choir College from its longtime Princeton home to the University’s Lawrence Township campus next fall, those who fear the relocation would spell the end of the esteemed music school are gearing up for what is billed as “A Critical Public Meeting,” set for Tuesday, September 10 at Nassau Presbyterian Church. The meeting is not a forum or a debate. It is an information session, which will include a video about Westminster and a question-and-answer session after the presentation. “This is something we started formulating about a month ago as an opportunity to get out to the public what is really going on,” said Constance Fee, who heads the Westminster Foundation, a group of alumni, faculty, and various supporters of the choir college. “The PR from Rider is that this move is all wonderful. But we want to let people know what is actually going on in the background.” Rider merged with Westminster in 1991. The University announced plans Continued on Page 11

Riverside On Track for a Thursday Opening After massive cleanup of construction dust and debris over the past few days, with custodial crews working alongside a professional cleaning company throughout the Labor Day weekend, Riverside Elementary School will be opening on Thursday, September 5, a day after the other Princeton Public Schools (PPS). “Riverside passed inspection by the health officer this morning and is on track for a great opening on Thursday,” PPS Superintendent Steve Cochrane wrote in an email Tuesday afternoon. In other school news this week, the New Jersey Department of Education has approved PPS’ application for preschool expansion aid with $770,939 in additional funding. The funding will enable the district to offer, free of charge, a new dual language immersion preschool class at Community Park School and a new class for 3-yearolds in partnership with the YWCA, as well as continuing to offer preschool classes at Johnson Park and Riverside. Cleanup Delays

As teachers returned to Riverside last week to prepare for this week’s scheduled opening, construction crews, which had

installed new HVAC units in most of the classrooms, were still completing their work and cleanup. Many teachers, according to Riverside teachers’ union representative Christina DiLillo, were experiencing headaches, burning throats, and coughing. Cochrane noted “significant levels of dust and debris left from the construction,” and he and Riverside Principal Mark Shelley sent an email letter to parents last Friday announcing that the first day of school would

be delayed until Thursday, September 5. Emphasizing concern for health and wellness of staff and students, the letter stated that the work done over the summer “has had a profound impact on our infrastructure and our normal process and timeline for school preparation — particularly in these waning days of August.” In responding to additional concerns raised by parents and staff members, Cochrane and Shelley noted that the Continued on Page 7

Bainbridge House to Reopen With Neighborhood Block Party

The renovations are complete. Bainbridge House, the red brick, Georgianstyle building at 158 Nassau Street, is ready to reopen as a public viewing space programmed by the Princeton University Art Museum. On Saturday, September 14 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., a block party for the community will celebrate the new life of the historic structure, rechristened Art@Bainbridge. The Museum plans to use the first floor as gallery space for displaying the work of contemporary artists. The first installation,

“Jordan Nassar: Between Sky and Earth,” shows works created by the 34-year-old artist during the last five years. This focus on the new is intentional. It contrasts the notable history of Bainbridge House, which stretches back to the mid-1700s and includes years as lodging for members of the Continental Congress in 1783. Earlier, it served as the home and medical office of Absalom Bainbridge, an enslaved person who successfully battled for freedom. Continued on Page 12

Why the Princeton Campus is Vital for Westminster’s Survival

Tuesday, September 10th at 7:00pm Nassau Presbyterian Church/Assembly Room 61 Nassau Street, Princeton, NJ 08540

*The Westminster Foundation, Princeton, NJ, Inc. is an independent organization, and is not affiliated with Rider University or Westminster Choir College. In 1991, an affiliation was established between Rider College and Westminster Choir College. In a short time, both institutions benefited substantially from the partnership. Westminster quickly regained its stability as enrollment returned to historical levels, and the quality of its programs in music education and performance were strengthened by excellent additions to its faculty and administration. Through this affiliation, Rider College was able to become Rider University, which provided it with an additional level of prestige and stature in the world of higher education. Rider became widely known through this association as its name then appeared with Westminster’s in the Choir College’s numerous performances in the U.S. and abroad, including concerts with the world’s finest orchestras and conductors, and through Westminster’s many commercial recordings, several of which have received Grammy nominations. Furthermore, establishment of the Westminster College of the Arts in 2007 has added substantially to Rider’s student body at its Lawrenceville campus, bringing Rider significant tuition dollars each year.

Rider’s plan to sell Westminster to a Chinese governmentcontrolled for-profit corporation was defeated.

Rider’s current administration and trustees have presented plans that would reap tens of millions of dollars for Rider through the sale of Westminster assets. The lawsuits filed by individuals and the Princeton Theological Seminary are not hyperbolic attacks nor groundless scare tactics, but actions based upon the terms and conditions to which Rider agreed in its 1991 affiliation with Westminster, and based upon terms of the trust of Sophia Strong Taylor, who purchased the land upon which Westminster’s campus sits.

Rider NOW plans to move the Choir College to Lawrenceville and sell the Princeton campus. In December 2016, Rider said that it would move Westminster’s operations to Rider’s campus in Lawrenceville, and sell Westminster’s home of nearly 90 years on 23 acres in Princeton. The announcement brought considerable interest from several parties anxious to participate in this apparent land-grab opportunity. Rider’s plan soon shifted to severing all ties to Westminster, by offering several options including a new affiliation with Westminster which gave Rider the prospect of pocketing an even heftier sum of $40,000,000 by essentially selling Westminster’s $19M endowment as an accompaniment to the sale of the campus.

Will their plan destroy this beloved institution?

An affiliation that requires a direct payment is unprecedented in the academic not-for-profit world. At no time did Rider offer any college, university, conservatory, orchestra or other not-for-profit in the U.S. or abroad the opportunity to simply affiliate with Westminster without a direct payment, as Rider had done in 1991. Although Rider offered the opportunity to take Westminster’s programs to another location, thus allowing Rider to sell Westminster’s campus, Rider always demanded a substantial direct payment for any institution wishing to affiliate with Westminster while keeping the Choir College on its Princeton campus.

How does Rider’s plan affect the Princeton Community? What are the implications for taxpayers?

In mid-February 2018, Rider announced the signing of a “Term Sheet” with BKET. The Westminster Foundation, Princeton Theological Seminary, and the New Jersey Attorney General’s office have repeatedly asked to see it, but it has never been revealed. Mystery also surrounds the “Purchase and Sale Agreement” which Rider announced in June 2018, and the “Commitment Letter” which was announced early last fall.

What are the alternatives?

Rider has been completely secretive regarding the terms of the proposed transaction with Beijing Kaiwen Education Technology (BKET), thus it is impossible for anyone who truly cares about the future of Westminster Choir College to support this deal. How soon might BKET be allowed to close the school and sell its campus? It might be seven years, five, two or perhaps one: only Rider and BKET know as the language of the signed agreements have been kept from the public eye as well as the eyes of New Jersey’s Attorney General’s office and licensing and accrediting officials.

All members of the Princeton community are urged to attend this open public meeting. In light of a

The absence of transparency regarding the contents of these important documents should also cause anyone who cares about Westminster to withhold support for proposed move to Rider University’s Lawrenceville campus, future of Westminster Choir College this transaction. Fears that BKET could close Westminster’s campus, sell the property, and hijackthe the endowment, or transform Westminster into something other than is a choir college, are stoked by Rider’s refusal to allow those who care about Westminster’s future to see the terms and conditions to which Rider has commitat a critical juncture. The meeting will focus on discussing answers to these questions and sharing ted Westminster’s future. Furthermore, the structure of the deal is based upon the creation of a questionably structured not-for-profit U.S. subsidiary of BKET, a vitalcompany information withofthe community. for-profit under the control the Chinese Government. Although we have received numerous offers of voluntary assistance in the management and operation of an independent Westminster, it has been impossible for The Westminster Foundation is an independent organization made up of supporters, alumni, faculty, the Foundation to make much progress toward that goal. Rider would never release Westminster’s endowment or its illegitimate title to the campus, so that leaves donors, andand friends of Westminster Choir College. Our stated purpose ismight to preserve thethelegacy and Rider’s administration trustees with another viable alternative to the sham BKET “Solution on the Table.” They want to consider possibilities that embracing Westminster Choir College could bring to Rider University. Rider has a venerable history that dates from the closing days of the Civil War. Nevertheensure the future of Westminster Choir College in Princeton, New Jersey, and to oppose efforts by less, Westminster Choir College is the only Rider division that has ever achieved worldwide acclaim. Westminster’s name and renown have greatly benefited the Rider College University toprogram, sell, relocate close Westminster of the Arts and continueor to do so. Westminster Choir College. Rider claims that its financial difficulties are the basis for seeking to divorce Westminster. However, in the 2018 filing memorandum for Rider’s $42M bond issue, Forsolid, those unable to attend, theupon meeting will beIt live-streamed Rider averred that its finances were and that Westminster was no burden Rider’s operations. stated that the money at being raised was not for operations, but strictly for capital improvements and the development of new educational offerings. Furthermore, Rider stated that its ability to make principal and https://www.facebook.com/westminsterfoun/ interest payments related to the bond offering was in no way contingent upon the sale of Westminster Choir College. Indeed, Rider has recently sent a handsome publication to donors that celebrates its best year ever of fundraising. The Westminster Foundation, Princeton, NJ, Inc, concludes that those who care about the Choir College cannot support the Beijing Kaiwen proposal. However, a wonderful alternative is clear: a Rider administration and board of trustees that cherishes Rider University’s affiliation with Westminster Choir College, instead of raiding Westminster’s assets and tossing its future into unsafe hands. It is not too late for the Rider administration and trustees to change course and again open their arms to Westminster Choir College, which has provided inestimable benefits to Rider, the local communities, and the world of music education, choral music, and performance. In light of Molly O’Neil Frank’s enthusiastic support on these pages of the proposed deal with BKET, the Westminster Foundation cordially invites her and her colleagues on the Rider Board of Trustees to the next Westminster Foundation open public forum, along with senior members of the Rider administration, and Larry Livingston, who directs BKET’s U.S. acquisition subsidiary for Westminster.

Cadwalader Heights House Tour Celebrates “112 Years Young”

For Sam and Teska Frisby, a drive down the leafy streets of Trenton’s Cadwalader Heights neighborhood was all it took. It was 2003, and the couple had just built a home in suburban Westampton. But when Sam Frisby became

Trenton’s director of recreation, they needed to make the move to the city. “When we saw the landscaping by Freder ick L aw Olms ted, w it h t re e c a nopie s t hat looke d almos t li ke t hey were hugging the street, we said, ‘This is it,’” said Sam Frisby, who has been a Mercer County freeholder since 2011. “It was just an incredible visual delight.”

The couple — Teska Frisby works with National Junior Tennis & Learning of Trenton — moved with their ch i ldren i nto a si x- b e d room, 1912 Arts and Crafts style Tudor on Belmont Circle, and have never looked back. The home is one of 10 in this architecturally diverse neighborhood that will be open to the public for the annual Cadwalader Heights House Tour on Saturday, September 14 from 12-5 p.m., rain or shine. It w as t h e p e ople, as well as the visual beauty, that convinced the couple to m ove to C ad w a lad er Heights. “Right from the beginning, they were amazing,” s aid Teska Fr isby. “So inv iting, so fr iendly — the first night we were here, which was right befor e Ch r i s t m a s, we g ot two raps on the door, and it was neighbors bringing over cakes. Everybody welcomes you, and everybody looks out for each other. It’s been that way since we came here.” Most of the homes in Cadwalader Heights were built in the early 20th century. Famed landscape architect Olmsted — best known for New York’s Central Park — laid out the neighborhood, the only residential community credited to him in New Jersey. Houses cover a wide range of styles and s i ze s, f rom cot t age s on the small side to an immense, 22-room mansion overlooking the park. In its manufacturing heyday, the area was home to local bigwigs. Early residents included the heads of several of the city’s potteries, as well as local builders, the pr incipal of Trenton High School, and the candy maker William Allfather.

Banker Mary Roebling lived in Cadwalader Heights for a few years. The neighborhood has also been home to former New Jersey Governor Richard J. Hughes and Judge Philip Forman. The Fr isbys’ home has 53 windows, which means lots of light. “On the first floor, we have a tray ceiling, which we’ve painted two different colors,” said Teska Fr isby. “It has so much character. We have double doors, too. It’s a very inviting space. I love the colors, which are warm and jubilant. The objective for me is for each room to have a certain energy.” Continued on Next Page

According to the couple, the house had two previous owners before they moved in. “It feels like a home that has many stories to tell,” said Sam Frisby. “It started out with three fireplaces and now there are only two. People have told us one used to be in the kitchen. And if you look from the outside, you see it has a really huge chimney stack, with four different flues. One was for that old fireplace.” The family have made some changes to the house, including the removal of a wall to make the first floor rooms flow more effectively into each other. One year when the house was on the tour, Sam Frisby heard an older woman wander ing through ask, “Who took this wall down?” “I said, ‘It was me.’ And she said, ‘I’m Mrs. Murphy. I’m the one who put it up. And it does flow so much better.’ She also wanted to know what happened to the bookshelf, which I had taken down with the wall. That turns out to have been a Nakashima original that was probably worth about $75,000, she said. Well, there went college tuition. We laugh about it all the time. What can you do?’” The neighborhood is known for the diversity of its population. It is home to performing and visual artists, educators, architects, entrepreneurs, and business and science professionals. “This is a very diverse and inclusive community,” said Sam Frisby. “We have African American, Eastern European, gay, straight, people from wealthy and much less so backgrounds, married, unmarried — you name it.” “There is a family feel here,” adds Teska Frisby. “We check on each other. It’s an old-school feeling. Everybody watches, everybody waves to each other. The crime rate in this neighborhood is low because of that. If you’re dealing with one of us, you’re dealing with all of us.” A portion of the tour’s proceeds will benefit Kappa Botics, the Capital Area YMCA Youth Programming, and Trenton Circus Squad. Young representatives of each will be on hand to demonstrate their skills during the tour. Tickets are $20 in advance, and $25 the day of the event at Ellarslie, the Trenton City Museum in neighboring Cadwalader Park. Visit www.cadwaladerheights.com for more information. —Anne Levin

Question of the Week:

“What do you think of the new facility?” (Asked Sunday at the Princeton First Aid & Rescue Squad Sneak Peek) (Photos by Charles R. Plohn)

John: “This is the nicest rescue squad I’ve ever seen. This project started over 15 years ago when we started looking at plans for a new building, so to see it come to fruition is incredible.” —Isabel and John Griffith, Princeton

Lenore: “This is a fantastic building and a truly wonderful addition to the whole community. I think Princeton and the surrounding communities are very fortunate to have a dedicated first aid and rescue squad serving us.” Branden: “I absolutely love it. It is much nicer than the older building. I just love the meeting rooms and the classrooms. I am a volunteer fireman in Montgomery and am hoping to also become an EMT here as soon as possible.” —Lenore Danielson, Rocky Hill with Branden Quirinale, Montgomery

Ilene: “It’s been great watching the construction of the building moving along so quickly and so well. It is amazing seeing all the rescue equipment up close and being able to have tours of this beautiful new facility. We are very thankful to have this so close to home.” —Victoria, Ilene, and Ethan Borrus, Princeton

Nikolai: “I like the music here today, the bent spoon, and the awesome people here helping to save others.” Alexander: “This is a beautiful space. I love the Princeton colors on the walls.” —Nikolai and Alexander Margulis with Hugo Miller, all of Princeton

Ares: “What I am most excited about is that we are going to have a lot of dedicated space to help the squad be a real community. We are a very tight-knit group, and it is very important for us to be able to be that way because we do work together as a team when we are responding to your calls.” Allison: “In addition to the size of our group growing since we built the last building, so has our fleet. This building will have space for all four ambulances, the rescue vehicle, two SUVs, a trailer, a special services vehicle, and a boat. Also, the ability to jump right out from this central location in town will help response times become even faster.” —Ares Alivistatos, Princeton with Allison Persky, New York City

district had followed asbestos testing guidelines and received a report that there was no trace of asbestos in the building; hired a contractor to make sure that new tile is put in place to cover all areas where old horizontal ventilators were located in classrooms; and hired an outside firm specializing in big cleaning projects to work with the custodial staff over the weekend to thoroughly clean all areas of the building, especially addressing “the accumulated dust that the contractors failed to clean when they finished their work.” They also noted plans to double-check all rooms to eliminate any hazards such as exposed pipes or wiring and to conduct a series of air quality tests following the cleanup effort. With teachers unable to get into their rooms to begin setting up until Tuesday, September 3, the letter stated, the opening day for students would be pushed back to Thursday. Cochrane stated that air testing results should be available by late Tuesday, but, as of Tuesday noon, “teachers are now happily setting up their classrooms and the building is sparkling.” He added, “Families were at Riverside this morning for a Meet and Greet with teachers, and I know everyone is looking forward to a wonderful start to the school year.” DeL illo conf ir med t he upbeat outcome and the significant impact of the cleanup efforts in creating a “workable environment.” The outside company and

custodians “came through the whole building over the weekend and wiped down all surfaces from ceiling to floor, and all is functional now,” she stated. She noted that teachers have been significantly delayed in preparing their classrooms and face a lot of work ahead. Princeton Health Officer Jeff Grosser, accompanied by the principal and superintendent, inspected the building early Tuesday, September 3, and noted dramatic improvements since his visits last week. Responding to concerns from teachers last week over the level of dust in the air and breathing issues for themselves and the students who would be arriving this week, Grosser came in to assess the situation. He emphasized the problem of the construction crew cleanup overlapping with teachers beginning preparations for the new year. For future projects — installation of HVAC units in the other three elementary schools is scheduled for next summer — Grosser recommended extra vigilance, with more thorough attention to containing the dust, covering objects with plastic covers, moving items out of rooms where work is being done, and making sure that areas being worked on are isolated. Noting that contractors were working on this particular project right up until last week, he also recommended scheduling more time for cleanup. He praised teachers and administrators for successful communication with each other and with the Health Department in working through the problem to reach a favorable solution.

Preschool Funding In announcing the DOE approval of the district’s application for preschool aid, Cochrane emphasized the importance of the preschool program in working towards equity in the PPS. “Free public preschool is widely recognized as an important path towards closing the achievement gap,” he said. “This is an exciting opportunity for the Princeton

Public Schools, and for our entire community.” With the addition of the preschool state aid, the district preschool program will increase to four classrooms on October 1, with a mixedage dual language (Spanish and English) immersion class opening at Community Park, along with the new program at the YWCA. —Donald Gilpin

We, the undersigned, thank and applaud the following organizations for their endorsement of House Resolution 246, a congressional resolution passed by the United States House of Representatives opposing the Global Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) Movement which targets Israel and which seeks to delegitimize Israel’s right to exist.

The Jewish Federation of Princeton Mercer Bucks The American Israel Public Affairs Committee

Adath Israel Congregation Congregation Beth Chaim Beth El Synagogue

American Jewish Committee

Congregation B’nai Tikvah

Anti-Defamation League

Congregation Brothers of Israel

Stand With Us Hindu-Jewish Coalition

The Princeton Chabad Center Har Sinai Temple The Jewish Center

This important resolution passed with overwhelming bipartisan Congressional support in a vote of 398-17 and complements the resolution by governors from all 50 states against BDS. The founder of the Global BDS Movement has denied the right of the Jewish People in their homeland, saying, “We oppose a Jewish State in any part of Palestine.” We must call out BDS for what it is: a movement dedicated to destroying the Jewish State — the lone democracy in the Middle East and America’s strongest ally in the region. It is important to note that House Resolution 246 affirms the constitutional right of all United States citizens to free speech, including the right to protest or criticize the policies of the United States or the State of Israel. We urge the greater Princeton community to stand united in its continued fight against antiSemitism and against the BDS movement and to oppose efforts to delegitimize the right of the State of Israel to exist.

Calvin A. Ramsey To Present W-J Historical Society Lecture

The Negro Motorist Green Book, a travel guide for African Americans published from 1936 to 1966 during the Jim Crow period of segregation, will be the subject of a lecture by author Calvin Alexander Ramsey at the Witherspoon-Jackson Historical and Cultural Society’s (WJHCS) first annual lecture at the Arts Council of Princeton (ACP) on September 18. The good news is that African American travel has

changed in the past half century since the 1964 Civil Rights Act, and, according to Ramsey in a 2015 interview in the New York Times, “There’s no more Jim Crow. So it’s 100 percent better.” The Green Book stopped publication in 1967, and African Americans searching for housing and food while traveling probably don’t need it any more. For WJHCS co-founder and leader Shirley Satter-

field the bad news was that she and two young teacher colleagues, who drove across the country from Nevada to New Jersey in 1964, didn’t have the Green Book and wished they had. “Had we had the Green Book, we would have known where to stay to be safe,” she said. “Unaware how dangerous it was,” Satterfield and two other African American women teachers in their 20s took the southern route across the country as mapped out by the American Automobile Association (AAA). Satterfield described problems in Mississippi where they were refused the use of public restrooms and told to go into the woods across the street; motels in Memphis that would not allow them to stay; and a frightening confrontation on a dark road in West Virginia. They decided to take the northern route on their return to Nevada. She pointed out that three Princeton establishments catering to African Americans, no longer in operation but now included on her Witherspoon-Jackson Heritage Tour, were featured in the Green Book: the Charcoal Inn on John Street, Mrs. Gregory’s Beauty Parlor on Green Street, and Griggs’ Imperial Restaurant across

from the Princeton Public Library. At the upcoming fundraiser, Ramsey will discuss the creation and history of the Green Book. His popular children’s book, Ruth and the Green Book (2010 ), tells the story of a young girl traveling with her family from Chicago to visit her grandmother in Alabama in the early 1950s. Ramsey has also published a two-act play titled The Green Book (2006) based on his research into the original Negro Motorist Green Book, which was written by New York City mailman Victor Hugo Green. Ramsey, a resident of both Atlanta and New York City, has written 12 plays and two children’s books, according to his website. The recent movie Green Book (2018), relating the story of the travels of a black singer and his white chauffeur, received three Academy Awards, including Best Picture in 2019. Ramsey’s lecture will begin at 7:30 p.m. on September 18 at the ACP, with doors opening at 7 p.m. Admission is a tax-deductible $35, with an added $15 for an autographed copy of Ruth and the Green Book. Children age 12 and under are admitted free. Tickets can be purchased in advance by sending checks payable to WJHCS at 190 Witherspoon Street, Princeton, NJ 08542. —Donald Gilpin

D&R Greenway to Dedicate New Labyrinth

Joining her will be Percussionist Karttikeya, who will play hand pans during the dedication, literally setting the tone for the reflective ceremony. Community involvement in setting the stones and dedicat ing t he laby r int h will connect par ticipants with the natural world and the work of D&R Greenway to inspire a conservation ethic on the land. Stones will be available for a donation of $30 to D&R Greenway prior to the ceremony.

Attendees are encouraged to become a part of the labyrinth by writing a meaningful saying or word that they would like to share and placing their stone in the laby r inth dur ing the dedication ceremony. All ages are invited to join in the festivities. “T he dedication is envisioned as a community ‘a r t ’ p r oj e c t s i m i l a r to A n d y G ol d s wor t hy’s fa mous installations,” says D &R Greenway President and CEO Linda Mead. “Yet, it is something more as it touches the spirituality of nature in a way that will continue to give to those who walk the path of the labyrinth, open to everyone who visits here, every day of the year.” “T he ide a to cre ate a labyrinth came about in a conversation I had with donor and poet Jody Kendall about the value of being outdoors and the healing quality of nature,” added Mead. “Jody found regeneration and joy in walking the trails at Greenway Meadows, t he park t hat surrounds our Johnson Education Center, and wanted to share that with others.” Kendall’s poetry is featured on D&R Greenway’s Healing Trails app. The dedication is open to the public and is free to attend. The D&R Greenway labyrinth is in the Edward T. Cone Grove, newly enhanced with native plantings, at the Johnson Education Center, 1 Preservation Place, Princeton.

to sell the campus two years ago, and later named a company from China as a potential buyer. But the $40 million deal fell through, and Rider has since changed focus to closing the campus and relocating all of its operations. The plan is opposed by the Foundation and by members of Rider’s chapter of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP). An amended complaint against Rider was filed last month, seeking to prevent the move and separate Westminster from Rider. An injunction to block the move is currently under preparation, said Fee. Among other claims, the legal actions say that Rider does not have the facilities to accommodate Westminster’s specialized curriculum. University President Gregory Dell’Omo sent a letter to the Rider/Westminster community last month asking members of the faculty, staff, and student body to join working groups to assist in planning the move. In a letter to colleagues signed by the AAUP Westminster Choir College Advocacy Team this week, it was written, “Whether or not you have declined or volunteered to participate on a campus transition committee, the proposed consolidation of the two campuses by September, 2020 will be the main focus of the aca-

demic year. The enormous risks involved demand that all voices be heard on a plan that will cost millions and shape the future of not only Westminster Choir College but Rider University.” The letter goes on to say that committees are not being asked to discuss if or when the consolidation will occur, or even which spaces will be utilized, and that all of that has already been decided. “Nor has the community — including the working groups — been provided with the information needed to participate in a rational conversation on this issue,” it reads. “As the voice of the faculty, the AAUP’s repeated requests for information have so far been rebuffed by the administration. We will continue to demand that this process be carried out in a truly open and transparent way without the outcome being predetermined by the president.” The group has “gathered information on the physical spaces and equipment that is necessary in order to deliver the Westminster curriculum and have put that information into the attached report,” and urges people to consider that information. Fee said this week that The Alford Group, a Chicago-based consulting partner to nonprofits that provides fundraising and other services, approached the Westminster Foundation about helping to raise money, and are working pro bono until funding is secured. “They are seriously engaged and

heavily committed to moving forward to raising the funds necessary,” said Fee. Funds raised would sustain the school. “We have also been approached by other institutions interested in being affiliated with us,” Fee said, without naming any specific schools. “We have been contacted by two or three educational institutions.” “The point is that there are other alternatives [to moving the campus]. We have reached out to Rider, and are still willing to work together to find a way. This is not the only option.” Keeping the campus in Princeton “is vital,” she added. “At this meeting, we want to make people see that. We are inviting Dell’Omo and the board of trustees to attend, and we would love it if they would.” C o n t a c t e d Tu e s d a y morning, Rider spokesperson Kristine Brown said Dell’Omo and the board of trustees had yet to receive an invitation. “However, several senior administrators, including myself, do plan to attend in the audience,” she said. The meeting is at 7 p.m. at the church, 61 Nassau Street. For those unable to attend, it will be livestreamed at http://www. facebook.com/westminsterfoun/.

“This space will always be for contemporary, emerging artists, which is a juxtaposition to that history that is so important,” said Curtis R. Scott, associate director for publishing and communications at the Museum, during a tour last week. In a press release, the Museum’s director James Steward said, “This beautifully restored and updated historic building represents the institution’s ongoing commitment to examining the powerful work of today’s most exciting practitioners as it relates to our shared histories, values, and concerns.” The ground floor galleries are also intended as a meeting space for Museum programs, community gatherings, and partnerships with neighbors such as the Princeton Garden Theatre and Labyrinth Books.

shows centered around the theme of shelter. “These presentations will consider ideas of shelter and domesticity in the context of a recently restored colonial-era home,” the press release reads, “as well as wider implications of the theme as it relates to belonging, the construction of identity, and the arts as a site of refuge.” Nassar’s landscapes and geometric compositions “reflect his exploration of landscape as a representation of both a geographic location and an abstract idea of home,” it continues. The inaugural exhibit opens the day of the block party and runs through January 5, 2020. Princeton University has owned Bainbridge House since 1877. It is one of the oldest houses in town, dating back to 1766. The building was the library’s first home, from 1909 to 1966. The Historical Society moved in a year later, and stayed until relocating to Updike Farmstead in 2015. Most of the original structure of

Bainbridge House is in place, including the original wall paneling, fireplace mantels and surrounds, doors, and staircase. Some of the historic fabric was restored during the renovation project, which also included an upgrade of electrical systems. Extra gallery space will be welcome as the Museum prepares to close for a massive expansion project, targeted to begin in early 2021 and last approximately three years. “The gallery space here is different from the Museum,” said Scott. “The idea was to create more of a gallery vibe. The text on the walls will be less didactic. It won’t be as intense as what is on the walls in the Museum.” Admission to the block party is free. Visitors will have a chance to inspect the entire Bainbridge building, some of which has previously been off limits to the public. There will be exhibition tours, familyfriendly activities, live music, and participation by neighboring shops and businesses. —Anne Levin

The circus is coming to town on October 19 in the form of the Trenton Circus Squad (TCS ), a troupe of young people from Trenton and surrounding Mercer County suburbs. They will be hosting “Step Right Up!” — their annual benefit “to help youth take big leaps in life” in a big top circus tent at the Princeton Family YMCA on Paul Robeson Place. In its fifth year, TCS, based in the Roebling Wire Works building on Clinton Street in Trenton, will offer its Princeton audience a taste of what it means to be a part of the TCS atmosphere. “We want you to get a glimpse into what makes this organization so magnetic,” said TCS Co-Founder and Executive Director Tom Von Oehsen. “Our performances make people smile.” The event will include carnival games, a sit-down dinner, cocktails, a live auction, an art installation by Eva Mantell, and the featured TCS circus performance accompanied by live music by the Ever After Band. More than 20 high schoolage troupers will perform aerial acts — on the trapeze, metal lyra hoops, and silks (long pieces of fabric hung from the ceiling) — unicycling, juggling, clowning, stilt walking, wire walking, and more. “This is an opportunity for the kids to shine and to show everybody the results of this program,” Von Oehsen said. The program, with a busy fulltime summer schedule and after-school sessions from September to June, is free to participants, ages 6 to 18, with the nonprofit TCS relying on individual and corporate donations and public funding. Von Oehsen, a graduate of Ringing Brothers Barnum and Bailey Clown College, emphasized that the TCS is definitely focused on learning circus skills and creating successful performances, but its mission is much larger. “The program gives kids a sense of identity and builds a lot of confidence,” he said. “It gives them a sense of who they are and what they want to do in life. It encourages them to have dreams and goals and to understand how

Books Jhumpa Lahiri Is Named New Director Of Princeton’s Creative Writing Program P r i nce ton Un iver s it y’s Lewis Center for the Arts has named Pulitzer Prize-winning writer Jhumpa Lahiri the new director of the University’s Program in Creative Writing. Lahiri, a professor of Creative Writing on the Princeton faculty since 2015, succeeds 2017-19 U.S. Poet Laureate Tracy K. Smith, who has led the program since 2015 and on July 1 became chair of the Lewis Center. “Jhumpa Lahiri, one of the great writers of our time, is a truly galvanizing and empowering presence in the classroom,” said Smith. “Our community is enriched by her commitments to the development of student writers, the practice of translation, and the wealth of literature being written in languages other than English. Jhumpa has also engaged in conversations around the intersection of literature and other art forms and disciplines. Under her directorship, the Creative Writing Program will enter an urgent and meaningful new phase.” Lahiri received the 2000 Pulitzer Prize for Interpreter of Maladies, her debut story collection. She is also the author of The Namesake, Unaccustomed Earth, and The Lowland, a finalist for both the Man Booker Prize and the National Book Award in fiction. The recipient of numerous awards and fellowships, including the PEN/Heming-

way Award, the PEN/Malamud Award for Excellence in the Short Story, the Addison Metcalf Award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, a Guggenheim Fellowship, and a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship, Lahiri was awarded a 2014 National Humanities Medal by President Barack Obama.

Jhumpa Lahiri Born in London and raised in Rhode Island, Lahiri received her B.A. in English literature from Barnard College and multiple degrees from Boston University including an M.A. in English, M.F.A. in Creative Writing, M.A. in Comparative Literature, and a Ph.D. in Renaissance Studies. She has taught creative writing at Boston University, Baruch College, Barnard College, The New School, and

the Rhode Island School of Design. “At a time when words are used to falsify and divide,” said Lahiri, “I am proud and inspired to direct a diverse and inclusive creative writing program that unites Princeton students with some of the world’s finest writers. Never before has our faculty represented such a multitude of cultures, languages, and perspectives. This year not only marks the 80th anniversary of the program, but our continued determination to redefine the literary landscape.” Princeton’s Program in Creative Writing traces its origins to 1939, when Dean Christian Gauss approached the Carnegie Foundation to help the University focus on the cultivation of writers and other artists. He appointed poet and critic Allen Tate as the first Resident Fellow in Creative Writing. Since then world-renowned writers have served as faculty and visiting guest writers including Simon Armitage, John Berryman, Elizabeth Bowen, Jeffrey Eugenides, Robert Fitzgerald, Thomas Gunn, Edmund Keeley, David E. Kelley, Chang-rae Lee, John McPhee, Lorrie Moore, Neel Mukherjee, Joyce Carol Oates, Philip Roth, Claudia Rankine, Erika Sanchez, Delmore Schwartz, Edmund White, Kevin Young, and Nobel laureates Toni Morrison and Mario Vargas Llosa. The Program will celebrate this milestone anniversary with appearances by 80 writers over the course of the coming academic year.

emerita of Jewish studies and history and founding director of the Allen and Joan Bildner Center for the Study of Jewish Life at Rutgers, will return to campus to discuss her new book Desert in the Promised Land at a public talk on September 12. Using slide images and drawing on a wide range of literary, artistic, and folkloric sources, Zerubavel will explore the multiple meanings of the desert as both a geographic region in Israel and a symbolic landscape in Zionist and Israeli culture. In examining the changing views of the desert from the early 20th century to the present, she will shed light on romantic and mythical associations, settlement and security issues, and environmental concerns. The lecture, “Desert in the Promised Land: Nature, Settlement, and the Politics of Space,” will be held at 7:30 p.m. at the Douglass Student Center, 100 George Street, New Brunswick. The talk is free and open to the public and free parking is available on campus with vehicle registration. Sponsored by the Allen and Joan Bildner Center for the Study of Jewish Life, the talk is the Ruth and Alvin Rockoff Annual Program. Advance registration is requested: email rsvpBildner@ sas.rutgers.edu or register online on the Bildner Center website: BildnerCenter.Rutgers.edu. Zerubavel is a leading expert in the areas of collective memory, Israeli culture, war and trauma, and symbolic landscapes. She is also the author of the award-winning Author, Founding Director Recovered Roots: Collective To Lecture at Bildner Center Memory and the Making of Yael Zerubavel, professor Israeli National Tradition.

Now it’s Labor Day weekend, art and work, the charisma of old books, William Wordsworth’s “Tintern Abbey,” a trip to Hay-on-Wye, and the Frankenthaler exhibition, which will be at the Princeton University Art Museum through October 20. The exhibit takes its theme from literary critic William Empson’s landmark study, Seven Types of Ambiguity (1930), a title Frankenthaler borrowed for the large painting on view near the entrance to the gallery. According to curators Mitra Abbaspour and Calvin Brown, the show illustrates “the central principle of Empson’s text: that close reading, like close looking, can yield deep relationships with an abstract composition.” Given the no-limits, anything-is-possible nature of this column, my idea of “close looking” is expressed in the second stanza of Wordsworth’s “Lines Composed a Few Miles Above Tintern Abbey,” where, “with an eye made quiet by the power/Of harmony, and the deep power of joy,/We see into the life of things.” Journey to the Kingdom of Books What set me thinking back to a long-ago summer’s day at Tintern Abbey and Hay-on-Wye was the recent New York Times obituary biography of bookseller Richard Booth, the selfproclaimed “King Richard Coeur de Livre,” who “collected a million titles to transform a fading 12th-century Welsh market town into a mecca for secondhand book fanciers.” The Labor Day theme surfaced when I read how Booth “championed the members of the rural working class who built Hay-on-Wye into a Town of Books by hauling hundreds of thousands of volumes there to derelict properties repurposed as warehouses and stores.” As Booth modestly puts it in his autobiography My Kingdom of Books, “Working with just a few country laborers, I ended up possessing books of greater intellectual variety than all the universities in the British Isles put together.” Busking and Browsing My friend Roger and I arrived at Tintern Abbey almost 200 years to the day Wordsworth dated his poem, July 13, 1798. The weather was Britishly brooding and benign, house martins were feeding chicks nesting in the ramparts of the ruin, and we could hear with Wordsworth the waters of the Wye “rolling from their mountain-springs/With a soft inland murmur.” A few hours later Roger was stationed on Crown Street serenading the townsfolk of Hay-on-Wye

with that deep bluish tint which is so widely condemned when it is put into pictures. There were long rows of shops, whose fronts shone with full golden light. Here and there, from druggists’ windows, or from the red street-lamps that indicated the positions of fire alarm boxes, a flare of uncertain, wavering crimson was thrown upon the wet pavements.” On Labor Day weekend, it’s worth pointing out the third paragraph’s “brown young man” going “along the avenue” holding “a tin lunch-pail under his arm in a manner that was evidently uncomfortable. He was puffing on at a corn-cob pipe. His shoulders had a self-reliant poise, and the hang of his arms and the raised veins of his hands showed him to be a man who worked with his muscles.” Labor Intensive There’s also “a self-reliant poise” in the exhibit photograph of Frankenthaler bending intently over her work table, bare-armed in a spattered apron, a balance of grace and force in arms that look at the same time no less appealingly feminine than they would in a sleeveless evening gown. An even more labor-intensive image shows her engaged on a project with Rodney Konopaki at Tyler Studios; if you didn’t know better, you’d think you were seeing two machinists at work. The Ambiguities ’ve been checking the twists and turns of this column against the types of ambiguity Empson notes in Seven Types of Ambiguity’s table of contents. The capital-A Ambiguity of Japanese-Civil War, JapaneseAbstract woodcut pairings can be related to type one, “when a detail is effective in several ways at once,” or, even better, type two, where “two or more alternative meanings are fully resolved into one,” though I wouldn’t use the word “fully.” But wait, in the third type “two apparently unconnected meanings are given simultaneously,” which sounds about right, as does the fourth type, where “the meanings combine to make clear a complicated state of mind in the author.” Give that one a big check from me-being-thoroughly me, and two checks for the fifth type, “a fortunate confusion, as when the author is discovering his idea in the act of writing,” absolutely! I relate all too well to the sixth type, where “what is said is contradictory or irrelevant and the reader is forced to invent interpretations.” Finally, we come to the seventh type, which is “that of full contradiction, marking a division in the author’s mind.” Make that more than one division, with Wordsworth, Crane, Hiroshige, and Frankenthaler, and have you ever said “Happy Labor Day” to anyone? —Stuart Mitchner

WWAC Exhibition On Math and Art

The West Windsor Arts Council (WWAC) will present an exhibition on the intersection of mathematics and art at the West Windsor Arts Center September 9 through November 1, featuring 17 artists from across the United States. Juried by Lucas Kelly, professor of visual arts at Mercer County Communit y College, the exhibit examines how artists incorporate mathematical concepts into their work, both as subjects and underlying compositional structures. It includes painting, sculpture, prints, woodcut, and digital media. An opening reception with the artists will be held Sun-

day, September 22 from 4 to 6 p.m., with artists be on hand to discuss their work. Kelly’s work has been exhibited in museums and galleries across the United States and throughout Europe. His work has been the subject of multiple solo and group exhibitions, most notably in the survey of abstract painting The Painted World at PS1 MoMA. In 2019 Kelly was named as the inaugural artist in residence at the Penn Center for Neuroaesthetics. A full professor in visual arts at Mercer County Community College, Kelly holds a BFA from Maryland Institute College of Art and a MFA from Mason Gross School of the Arts. He is a member of the

Tiger Strikes Asteroid network of artists, and his studio is in Philadelphia. Mathematics and art have long been intertwined and enjoy a strong creative relationship. Artists use mathematics as a defined structure in which to operate, or a springboard from which to leap and play creatively. As technology and mathematics continue to advance exponentially, the relationship between mathematics and art shows no sign of slowing down.

Coming Off Another Trip to NCAA Final 4, PU Field Hockey Hungry for National Crown

hile the Princeton University field hockey program views itself as a national title contender, having made two of the last three NCAA Final 4s, visions of a crown are on hold as the squad rushes to prepare to open regular season play this weekend. “It has been in the conversation since we stepped off the field last year in November through the spring until now,” said Princeton head coach Carla Tagliente, who guided the team to 15-5 record in 2018 and a trip to the NCAA semis where the Tigers fell 1-0 to Maryland. “It is definitely in everyone’s mind but it is not something that we articulate and talk about this preseason. The focus is getting

prepared and getting everyone on board. That is the pie in the sky goal at this point. Right now it is just one day at a time. It is always a challenge because we are more than a week behind all of the non-Ivy League schools so we have got to hit the ground running and catch up.” Princeton should be able to pile up the goals with a forward line that includes junior Clara Roth (13 goals and 8 assists in 2018), sophomore Ali McCarthy (7 goals), senior Taylor Nolan (1 goal), freshman Ophelie Bemelmans, senior Krista Hoffman, and sophomore Zoe Shepard. “Clara and Ali both did a really nice job in the spring, they have done a nice job so

far in this preseason,” said Tagliente. “I think they will be our two most experienced and impactful players returning on the front line. Taylor may come off the bench, she may start some. She is impressive and keeps it simple; she is not as flashy as the others but I expect to see her have an impact in the front line this year. Ophelie is tall, skinny, lightning quick with a high work rate; I think she will eventually start and be impactful up there. Krista and Zoe will both get time up front and they will double in the midfield too.” The Tigers feature a number of impact players in the midfield with sophomore Hannah Davey (3 goals, 10 assists), junior Julianna Tornetta (10 goals, 7 assists), junior MaryKate Neff (6 goals, 3 assists), and highly-touted freshman Sammy Popper along with Hoffman and Shepard. “We are very, very strong through the midfield; we have better depth than we have ever had there since I have been here,” asserted Tagliente, who is entering her fourth season at the helm of the program that won the NCAA title in 2012. “We have Hannah and Julianna returning. We have got Mary Kate, who will slot into the defensive midfield position. Sammy can play

any of the four spots. For as good a goal scorer as she is, she might be eventually one of the better defensive midfielders that we have in that group.” While Princeton will miss senior star defender Maddie Bacskai, who is sidelined this fall due to injury, the Tigers still have a solid back line group, featuring sophomore Gabby Andretta, freshman Autumn Brown, senior Carlotta von Gierke (2 assists), and junior Marge Lynch. “Gabby played in that position this spring, she was very good,” said Tagliente. “She is very different from Maddie; we are going to miss Maddie a lot. Autumn has been injured a little bit here in the preseason but we are hoping that she is ready for opening weekend and then Carlotta and Marge will be the third and fourth backs.” It is reassuring for Princeton to have star senior goalie Grace Baylis back as she is coming off a superb 2018 campaign that saw her post a 1.21 goals against average with a .547 save percentage. “Baylis is irreplaceable in terms of leadership,” said Tagliente, noting that junior back-up goalie Grace Brightbill has been looking good in preseason. “Next year, I think that will be the biggest spot to fill in terms of the leadership.” With Princeton, ranked fifth nationally, starting its 2019 season by playing at No. 1 North Carolina on September 6 and No. 10 Wake Forest on September

We

had a very good game with UNC [a 1-0 loss] that could have gone either way. The hope is that we are in it and competitive in both games. At the end of it, we will see where we stand. We are still going to have a lot of work to do either way. It is only week one.” —Bill Alden

Although the Princeton Un iversit y men’s soccer team was thrilled to win the Ivy League title last fall, Jim Barlow knows that triumph will make things harder on this year’s squad. “There has never been a Princeton men’s soccer team that has won back-toback Ivy Titles,” said Princeton head coach Barlow, who guided the Tigers to a 10-5-3 overall record and 5-1-1 Ivy in 2018, winning the fifth league title in his 23-season tenure guiding the program. “It is pretty rare in our league because there is so much parity in our league. The big challenge for us is understanding how difficult it was to win the league last year and not taking anything for granted this year. The target is going to be on us. Every team is going to know who won the league last year and rise to give a great effort against us. We have got to be prepared for that and have the right mentality to deal with that.” Princeton is hoping for anther great season from junior star Kevin O’Toole, who was named the 2018 Ivy Offensive Player of the Year after tallying four goals and three assists. “We expect Kevin to be in the attack somewhere,” said Barlow. “There is a big hole left by [Jeremy] Colvin and

[Sean] McSherry graduating. We are trying to figure out exactly what Kevin’s best spot will be. He played on the right side last year with Colvin in the middle and McSherry on the left. Kevin is really good in the right side so he might be there.” T he Tigers have some other good options up top in senior Ben Mar tin (1 goal and 2 assists in 2018), sophomore Alex Charles, and senior Danny Hampton (1 goal) “Ben Martin has had a very good preseason so far; he has had some injuries over the years but we think he is more healthy than he has been the last couple of years,” said Barlow. “He is likely to get a lot of time up front, either as a center forward on the left side or even as an attacking midfielder. In the spring, we experimented a bit with Alex Charles, who had been a defender for us, having him play up front. We had a scrimmage against Columbia on Friday night and he had one of the goals as we won 2-0. Alex can play on either wing, he has got a knack for getting forward. There is also Danny Hampton, one of our captains, he is back and healthy and can play up front or in the midfield.” Across the midfield, Barlow is looking at sopho-

mores Moulay Hamza Kanzi Belghiti (2 assists) and Kazu Shigenobu along with Martin, Hampton, and O’Toole and freshmen Tristano Fasulo and Daniel Diaz Bonilla. “The two guys who have been very steady and solid right from the beginning of preseason have been Moulay and Kazu,” said Barlow. “We have some experienced guys in there with Moulay and Kazu. There is a good chance that Martin, Hampton, and O’Toole could see some time in the midfield. Tristano is a very good central midfielder and Diaz Bonilla has been very good in preseason so far in the midfield.” Last fall, the Tiger defense was very good as the team yielded only 12 goals all season long and that unit should be a strength again as Princeton welcomes back senior Bobby Hickson, junior Richard Wolf, sophomore Ben Bograd, and senior Cole Morokhovich. “They have a lot of experience; we have a really stingy back line,” said Barlow. “I think it starts with the fact the guys up the field defended so well last year. When we lose the ball in the other team’s half, it was good quick transition defending and pressing and making it hard for teams to get any kind of momentum going forward. That is where

it started for us and we are going to make that a staple for us this year.” Another staple for Princeton in recent years has been the stellar play of senior goalie and co-captain Jacob Schachner, who posted a 0.71 goals against average with six shutouts and 38 saves in 2018. “Jacob had an awesome season last year,” said Barlow, noting that the backups, senior Mohamed Abdelhamid, sophomore Sam Mor ton, and junior Jack Roberts, have also been impressive. “Mohamed is also a senior so we have good leadership with seniors in that position. All four of these guys have played in games. We feel like our deepest position may be goalkeeper, we have four goal keepers that we feel really good about.” With Princeton heading south to play No. 10 Duke (2-0) on September 6 in its season opener, Barlow also feels good about his squad’s chances to give the Blue Devils a battle. “It is a great challenge with us only being together for 12 days and them having two games and three scrimmages under their belt,” said Barlow. “They have a lot of things settled on their team and we are still learning a lot about our team. We are confident that we are a good team. We have learned a lot of lessons over the last couple of years and we have got some veteran guys. Despite the fact that we are only a week and half into it and have some guys banged up, we are still ready to go down there and throw everything we have at

them and see what we can come out with.” Noting that his squad has played an inordinate number of nail-biters over the last two seasons, Barlow is confident that the Tigers have what it takes to come out on top in the tight contests ahead. “We are optimistic that we are going to have a chance to win,” said Barlow.

“It is the case every year — how do you handle the plays in both boxes, how you do in restarts, and how do you handle yourselves when the game is on the line. We have had so many games in the balance or in overtime, we have a lot of experience dealing with it. It helps a lot.” —Bill Alden

Tiger Men’s Soccer Can’t Rest on Laurels As it Goes After 2nd Straight Ivy Crown

PU Football Alums Learn NFL Fate

The six Princeton University football alums in NFL camps this summer learned their fate over the weekend as teams had to trim their rosters from 90 to 53 players before kicking off regular season action. As the first week of the NFL season begins, Princeton is represented by four of those players, with the two others waiting for another opportunity that is likely to come at some point. Recently graduated John Lovett, the two-time Bushnell Cup winning quarterback, already knew that he would be on the injured reserve list for the Kansas City Chiefs. Lovett had established himself as an intriguing piece of the Chiefs’ high-powered offense with his abilit y to r un, pass, catch, and block before he suffered a shoulder injury. He was place on the IR a week ago, which essentially means a redshirt year for him. The other five alums were all cut on Saturday before three received better news Sunday. Those three all were wide receivers at Princeton who are now NFL tight ends. S et h DeValve ’15 was released by the Cleveland Browns after three seasons, 48 receptions for 596 yards and four touchdowns. He was then claimed by the Jacksonville Jaguars. Jesper Horsted ’19 and Stephen Carlson ’19, Princeton’s two starting wide receivers from last year, both were cut Saturday and then re-signed to the practice squad Sunday - Horsted with the Chicago Bears and Carlson with the Browns.

Tiger Men’s Cross Country Ranked 21st in National Poll

King, the Princeton University women’s volleyball team was selected first in the Ivy League preseason poll released last week. Princeton has won three Ivy titles in the last four years and has finished in at least second place in six of King’s eight years. During that stretch, the Tigers have won at least 10 Ivy matches five times. Princeton garnered 10 of the 15 first-place votes in the poll, nabbing 120 points. Yale, last year’s champion, earned five first-place votes and 117 points. Cornell was third while Har vard was fourth (1 first-place accolade and 80 points), Dartmouth (55), Brown (45), Columbia (44) and Penn (24) round out the poll. The Tigers open the 2019 season at the Rutgers Tournament by playing against Virginia and Rutgers on September 6.

The Princeton University men’s cross country team is ranked 21st in the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) preseason poll. The Tigers the only Ivy League team ranked in the national poll and are also ranked No. 1 in the MidAtlantic Region. Princeton has won the last two Ivy League Heptagonal titles, and has won 20 in program history. The Tigers begin their season on September 7 by taking part in the Fordham Fiasco at Van Cortlandt Park Princeton Softball in New York City.

Murray will help shape the team’s offensive vision for 2019-20 school year and will also assist with defense, recruiting, and take the lead on implementing some new technologies with the team this fall. Murray came to Princeton after a strong career at Cornell that wrapped up in 2018 with a .352 batting average, the fourth-most doubles in Big Red program history with 44 and the eighth-most hits in program history with 179. That helped her earn three All-Ivy League honors, placing on the first team in 2015 and 2018 and the second team in 2017.

PU Women’s Hockey Players Invited to Canada Fall Festival

Two Princeton University women’s hockey players, rising senior defenseman Claire Thompson and rising sophomore forward Sarah Fillier, have been invited to the BFL National Women’s Team Fall Festival, Hockey Canada said last week. This will be the second consecutive invitation for Fillier and t he f irst for Thompson. The 47 athletes selected by Hockey Canada will be split into two teams - Red and White - for a weeklong camp September 9-15 in Liverpool, Nova Scotia. The camp will feature four games, two intrasquad and two against local junior hockey clubs, along with practices and office sessions. The BFL National Women’s Team Fall Festival is an annual training camp aimed at helping develop and evaluate the nation’s top female players. It marks the first opportunity for the coaching staff to work with the athletes on and off the ice this season, and is a critical component of selecting the team that will go for gold on home ice at the 2020 IIHF Women’s World Championship next spring in Halifax and Truro, Nova Scotia.

PU Women’s Soccer Battles Hard in Home Opener But Rally Falls Short in 2-1 Loss to Boston College As the Princeton University women’s soccer team hosted Boston College last Sunday night in its home opener, it was locked in a scoreless battle with the Eagles an half hour into the contest, But then BC struck for two goals in a three-minute span as Sam Smith scored at the 30:39 mark and then at 33:43 and the game became an uphill battle for the Tigers. Princeton responded with a goal by sophomore midfielder Caroline Noonan late in the first half and applied pressure on the Eagles for the rest of the night but couldn’t break through with the equalizer in losing 2-1. Reflecting on the defeat that dropped Princeton to 1-1, Tiger head coach Sean Driscoll saw plenty of positives. “In general, I thought it was a great college game. We conceded two goals and dug ourselves a hole, but we got one back,” said Driscoll, whose squad started the s eason by edg ing S aint Joseph’s 1-0 last Friday in Philadelphia. “ We h a d s o m e g o o d chances, we really did. We did some good things and they did some good things. It was back and forth. We just weren’t clinical in the final third and that is what it comes down to in the end. You have to finish your chances. I have zero issue with our effort, I thought we worked hard. We still need to get some things accomplished. We still need to improve but I am happy with the effort of the team.” Driscoll was very happy to see Noonan notch her first career goal. “Caroline is a tireless worker, she is a great kid,” said Driscoll. “I am happy that she gets a goal for all of her hard work. She has been asked

to play wide back as well as center mid. She has asked to do a lot; she is always smiling and always wants to do whatever it takes.” Noonan, for her par t, smiled as she reflected on her breakthrough tally. “I just saw the ball coming in and I saw the keeper rebound it and then Amy [ Partenoster] back-heeled it, I thought that was going in, and then the keeper made another good save,” said Noonan in a post-game video interview on the Princeton athletics website. “The next thing I knew, it was at my feet and all could do was finish. It was an awesome moment, my first goal. I am really excited but I wish I could have gotten another one for the team.” While the defeat to BC stung, Noonan is excited about Princeton’s prospects going forward. “From this weekend, we can see how much depth our team really had,” said Noonan, a native of Highlands Ranch, Colo. “We were using player after player. It is really exciting to see how many players we have for the season. Also, I think we saw how hard our team can work. Last year there were moments when we weren’t working as hard as we thought we could. I think this year in both games we have really laid it out on the field.” Driscoll, for his part, is conf ident t hat his team will keep working hard as it hosts Boston University (0-3-1) on September 5 and Rutgers (4-0) on September 7. “We are very deep, we can mix in a lot of players,” said Driscoll. “I am looking forward to seeing what we do in those games. They are two very good teams, it will be fun for us.” —Bill Alden

S u f fer i ng s om e h e av y graduation losses from a squad that went 15-2 last year, the Princeton High field hockey team will have a different look this fall. “We lost nine seniors and have had some injuries during preseason; we have some juggling around to do,” said PHS head coach Heather Serverson, who guided the Tigers to the semis of both the Mercer County Tournament and the Central Jersey Group 4 sectional in 2018. “As usual, I don’t get to pick my players, so every season is the same for me. I figure out what we have and where to put them.” PHS does return some skilled offensive players in a trio of seniors Ria Sharma, Ellie Wilkinson, and Ava Greene, along with junior Shoshi Henderson. “Up front, we have Ria, who has been doing some great things for us in scrimmages and preseason,” said S er ver s on, w ho s e te a m hosts Nottingham on September 4 in its 2019 regular season opener.

“Ellie is another one to watch; her increased scoring at the end of the season last year really helped us out. Ava is looking to be more offensive this year and get up the field a bit. We will be looking to Shoshi too.” In the midfield, Serverson is looking for the pair of Wilkinson and Greene along with sophomore Olivia Weir to lead the way. “Players like Ava and Ellie could be the main driving forces in the midfield,” added Serverson. “Olivia is definitely going to have an impact.” Another sophomore, Grace Rebak, figures to have a big impact on the back line. “I am looking to Grace to really step up, I don’t think she will have any problem,” said Serverson. “She dealt with seasoned Lawrenceville girls last year with ease. She is really composed for her age.” PHS boasts a seasoned g o a l i e i n s e n i or G r a c e Cooke, who has emerged as a leader of the back line and is serving as a captain of the

Dealing with Heavy Graduation Losses, PHS Field Hockey Emphasizing Teamwork squad along with classmates Greene and Wilkinson. “Grace’s best strength is that she is such a team player. She was originally a field player and she volunteered to switch over two years ago and played goalie for us because we needed somebody to step up,” said Serverson. “She has just embraced it, she has become a student of the game. She is a great leader in the back. She has really stepped into her leadership role in teams of being vocal on the field. The girls are really listening to her, she is organizing everybody.” As the Tigers deal with the void left by graduation, the squad will need to be organized and in sync all over the field to produce another superb campaign. “If you only rely on a couple of star players, that is only going to get you so far,” said Serverson. “All of the kids understand that everyone has to play like a team and rely on each other; no one or two people can do this for us.” —Bill Alden

Featuring a Solid Core of Returning Players, PDS Girls’ Soccer Primed for Another Title Run Having won five straight Prep B state titles, the Princeton Day School girls’ soccer team has a major bull’s eye on its back coming into the 2019 campaign. “We have played a couple of scrimmages and teams are coming at us like it is tournament time because of our reputation,” said PDS head coach Pat Trombetta, who guided the Panthers to a 14-4-1 record last fall and an appearance in the Mercer County Tournament semis as well as sharing the Prep B title. “We played Rutgers Prep in a scrimmage the other day and they had a group of fans there, yelling and supporting like it was a tournament game. I was amazed. I am looking at kids, we haven’t even finalized our varsity roster yet. It was good for the kids to get that kind of experience.” In Trombetta’s view, his

kids are determined to live up to the program’s winning reputation. “We have a good core of players that return from last year,” said Trombetta, whose team gets its 2019 season underway this week by playing at Kent Place on September 3 before hosting Moorestown Friends on September 6 and Princeton High on September 7. “The standard has been set. These girls don’t want to be the first team to break that streak.” Senior Ariana Jones set a high standard last fall, emerging as a go-to finisher for the Panthers. “Ariana had a fantastic season last year; she is one of the captains this year and is going to lead the group,” said Trombetta, whose other captains are seniors Brianna Astbury, Riley Felsher, and Tulsi Pari. “She is so strong

on the ball and gives us a presence in the air as well.” Ju n ior Va ne s s a D ev i n along with a pair of freshmen, Grace Romano and Kirsten Ruf, should also provide a presence at forward. “Vanessa is looking for this opportunity to make more of an impact in a starting role, she is coming on nicely,” said Trombetta. “The two freshmen are very good players; I think they are going to make an immediate contribution for us. We are happy to have them as part of the team. Every year we seem to get some contributions from our incoming freshmen and I don’t see this year being any different.” PDS figures to get contributions from a number of players in the midfield as that unit features junior Kelly Beal, junior Jules Romano, senior Astbury, junior Brit Chia, sophomore Ava Mattson, and sophomore Ali Surace. “It is stacked, we have six or seven natural central midfielders on this team which I have never had,” said Trombetta. “Kelly can go forward and we have Brianna and Jules. Br it ney is com ing back from an ACL. She was out all year. She had a fantastic freshman year and has looked good as well this year. Ava and Ali are playing well. Jules and Kelly are teammates at the club level, that helps with our team chemistry.” The quartet of senior Pari, sophomore Cailyn Jones, junior Anna Ellwood, and sophomore Tyler Robinson are being counted on to produce a high level of play along the back line. “Tulsi, Cailyn, and Anna will probably see most of the time back there,” said Trombetta. “They have a lot of experience.

She was on the J V last year but we added her to the roster and she is probably our most improved player from last year to this year.” S e n i or g o a l i e Fe l s h e r showed a lot of improvement last year and is primed for a big final campaign. “Riley looks good, she is willing to take on a leadership role this year,” said Tr o m b e t t a , n ot i n g t h at Felsher has committed to attend NYU and play for its Division III women’s soccer program. “Playing with Grace (former PDS standout and current Princeton University goalie Grace Barbara) for a couple of years helped her too. I think Riley is going to have a solid season for us.” Trombetta, for his part, believes his squad can produce another championship campaign if it sharpens its focus. “I want us to improve our play during the season; we have to finish more of our opportunities in front of goal and not squander good chances,” said Trombetta. “Last season, we would just play a solid half at times, I want to see them play a complete full 80 minutes this year. We look at our program, we want to maintain the standards we have established in the past and I am looking forward to the season. It should be another fun year.” —Bill Alden

We are going to have to get our younger players to step up this year and really play a focused, team game as opposed to getting it to one or two people. We have been seeing our players who are t wo -spor t or three-spor t athletes who have some ability. It is now can they put that into field hockey.” —Bill Alden

As Jenn Barrett takes the helm of the Hun School girls’ soccer team this fall, she is emphasizing a holistic approach. “My main message is that better people make better athletes and I am really working on shifting the focus to being better than yesterday,” said Barrett, who served as an assistant coach for the program the last two seasons and is succeeding Joanna Hallac. “It is putting in your best effort and eventually things will fall into place. It is also working on leadership skills.” So far, Barrett is getting a good effort from her players. “They are great kids; that is one of the main reasons I am doing it,” said Barrett, who played for the Lawrenceville School girls’ soccer team in the late 1990s and continued her career for women’s squad at Muhlenberg College. “Since I have been here with them for the two seasons, I wanted to step up and take that job. They have been responding

wonderfully. They have been so supportive from the second I became head coach. I had to interview for the position and some of them spoke on my behalf. It is coming together really well.” Barrett is looking for the trio of sophomore Olivia D’Auerlio, junior Nicole Angelini, and senior Allison Cowan to come up big offensively. “Olivia is very good and a good option at forward,” said Barrett. “Nicole is going to be huge, she will be an attacking mid or a forward. Ally is so focused, you wouldn’t even know she is also a lacrosse player by the way she plays soccer. She is a wonderful kid and is definitely one of our best players.” While Angelini and Cowan may see some time in midfield, Barrett believes that two new faces, freshman Riley Hayes and junior transfer Chloe Hill, can make an impact in that spot. “Riley is very good, she plays for PDA ( Playe r s D e v e l op m e n t A c a d e m y ) North; they just won the

national club championship,” said Barrett. “Chloe played for Council Rock in Pennsylvania; she is definitely a midfielder we are looking toward.” On defense, junior Amanda Jenkins and freshman Maya Zuruld figure to lead the way. “Amanda is our center back, she is very quiet but shows wonderful leadership,” said Barrett, who is also looking at Hayes and Hill on defense. “She just goes in for everything, she is very consistent, Maya will also be back there.” Ju n ior t ra nsfer goa lie Grace Crowe is already showing consistency. “Grace is awesome; she is tall, I think she is 5’10,” said Barrett. “She is super active and has great leadership skills. She plays for PDA South.” With Hun, which went 4-11 last fall, kicking off the 2019 season by hosting Ewing on September 7, Barrett believes that focusing on intangibles can lead to a memorable season for the Raiders.

“I think the camaraderie, enthusiasm, hard work, and grit are extremely important for us to have success,” said Barrett, who is enthusiastic about having Julie Davis, a Hun soccer head coach in the 1990s and longtime girls’ basketball assistant coach, and Brynn Hansson, a former Wesleyan University player and assistant coach, joining her staff. “It is about having the ‘we ahead of me’ mentality. They are really doing a great job of that so far. It is knowing your role and whatever your role is, doing it to the best of your ability.” —Bill Alden

Arndt Excited to Take Helm of Hun Field Hockey, Focusing on Helping Squad Make Daily Improvement After guiding the Princeton Day School field hockey program from 2012-14, Tracey Arndt left the school and focused her efforts on younger players, coach ing for the Princeton Field Hockey Club. But while Arndt enjoyed work ing w it h t he club ’s U-10, U-12 and U-14 squads, she realized it wasn’t quite the same as coaching at the high school level. “There is something about a high school season; that is where the friendships are made,” said Arndt. “There is something so unique about the relationships that you can form; you find out things about yourself that you didn’t know before. I think that is really cool.” So when Arndt learned last fall that the Hun School had an opening at co-director of athletics, with the imminent retirement of Kathy Quirk, who also coaches field hockey and softball, she went for the job. “T h e p os it ion op e ne d up last December, the codirector position is what popped up, but because of this coach-teacher model that they have at these independent schools, you knew that you would be coaching something,” said Arndt. “I had known Kathy from coaching against her and I knew that she was leaving and that the field hockey position was open so that was a possibility.” Arndt got the job and also

agreed to take over the Hun field hockey program and the dual role has turned out to be a good fit. “It has really been awesome so far, it is very progressive; I am finding that is the Hun way,” said Arndt. “They are really focusing on athletes in general, not male or female, but sports equity; making sure that each student athlete gets the best experience they can get and that they are being supported the best way that they can.” The influence of Quirk has helped ease the transition for Arndt. “Kathy is such a keystone of that school and she has left her mark; I am not trying to fill her shoes, I will never be able to but my shoes are going to sit right next to hers,” said Arndt. “This is like another kid for her, the teams that she coaches and the school itself. Being so kind and supportive, she has been great. The staff in the athletic department, I think, is second to none.” As Hun has gone through its preseason pract ices, Arndt has been concentrating on bonding with her kids. “We are at a point where we we are starting to build what our culture is going to be, really getting to know each other and for ming those relationships,” said Arndt, whose team opens its season by hosting Springside Chestnut Hill (Pa.) on September 10.

“It is hard to come in when you have to start so quickly so we are trying to take some time so they understand where I am coming from and I understand where they are coming from and what has worked for them. For me as a coach, especially with a new program, it is defining what success is. Success to me this year may not be about our winloss record but more about how are we getting better everyday as individuals and as a team.” Arndt believes that her message is getting through to the squad, which is coming off a 6-11 seasom in 2018. “I am thankful that I have a healthy field hockey background but that doesn’t mean that they have to,” said Arndt, a former star at Penn State who played for the U.S. national team. “If they can come in and embrace the idea of working hard, being coachable and staying positive then everything will start to come into play. So far they have bought into that. Everybody is valued here and everybody is an important part of the puzzle.” Junior Allison Rho should emerge as a key piece for the Hun attack this fall. “Allison is a forward, she plays for the Princeton field hockey club as well,” said Arndt. “She has done a lot of neat things. She is a leadby-example type of girl, she may not be the vocal leader. She is certainly showing

leadership by her work ethic and attitude everyday. I have looked to her as a leader on the front line.” In addition to Rho, Arndt is looking for senior Emma Caforio and sophomore Ashley Jones to help spark the front line. “Emma has really stepped up as a natural leader; I think lacrosse is her main sport but it has been really fun to see her grow in field hockey in just the last week,” added Arndt. “Ashley plays on the Princeton club team as well; she played last year on varsity as a freshman.” On defense, senior Emily Albanese has been stepping up on the back line along with sophomore goalie Lexi Thomas. “Emily is more of a lacrosse player; she is super athletic and that has been fun to watch. Lexi is probably going to be our starting goalkeeper. Even in this last week, she has shown a lot of improvement.” Arndt is looking for improvement across the board as the season unfolds. “I think for us, the key is to focus on growth, number one, whether it is within the game or within their individual skills; if we continue to show growth that will be part of a successful season,” said Arndt. “One of the keys to success is staying within ourselves. We have a very hard schedule with our MAPL (Mid-Atlantic Prep League) games and the CVC (Colonial Valley Conference) games. It is staying on our course; we can’t let other things distract us. It is just

to continue to focus on what we are doing well and where we need to improve. Maybe we won a game against a team last year and lost this year but that means nothing. It is how did we perform from last week to this game.” In Arndt’s view, the players

are embraci ng t hat ap proach. “T he energ y is good; they are really being sponges which is awesome,” said Arndt. “The preseason has been long and grueling but they are going with it. It has been great.” —Bill Alden

Hunting is generally permitted every day starting one half hour before sunrise and ending one half hour after sunset, except for Saturdays, when no hunting is allowed between 10 am and 2 pm; and Sundays and Christmas Day, when no hunting whatsoever is allowed. In addition, no hunting is allowed other than from an elevated stand, or within 20 yards of any road or trail, and no hunting is allowed with a firearm. Warning signs will be posted at the entrances to each of the properties that will be hunted. All State and local regulations pertaining to parks and to hunting will remain in full force and effect and will be enforced by the Princeton Police Department. Any violation of these regulations will be grounds for terminating all hunting activities. Anyone with questions or concerns should contact either the Princeton Clerk’s office at (609) 924-5704, or the Chief of Police at (609) 921-2100. Bow hunting includes the use of crossbows as well as regular bows.

As the Stuart Country Day School field hockey team went through its preseason practices over the last two weeks of August, the focus was on sharpening fundamentals. “I am really proud of the kids and how hard they are working and the improvement that we are seeing in the last couple of weeks,” said Stuart head coach Missy Bruvik. “It is getting down all of those basic skills and to make sure that we are sound in them. The kids are putting in a good effort.” With the Tartans coming off a very good 2018 campaign which saw them go 12-5 and make the state Prep B semis and the Mercer County Tournament quarter-

finals, the squad’s veterans are bringing increased confidence into the fall. “I think that [last season’s success] is a bonus for us heading into this year with the number of kids who do return and played together last year,” said Bruvik, whose team opens its 2019 season by hosting South Hunterdon on September 6. “Our goal is to really build on last year’s success. They are also really serious about everyday, taking away something from practice and translating that into game play and successful scrimmages. We went down the Washington D.C. for scrimmages and the kids played well down there.” Bruvik is looking for senior Caroline Mullen, junior

Molly Lagay, junior Morgan John, freshman Lily Harlan, and senior Aditi Mehndiratta to put things together on the front line. “Caroline is an attacking middie, she is doing a phenomenal job in terms of leadership and keeping the energy going day in and day out at practice,” said Bruvik. “Molly will be on the forward line. Morgan has returned to play for us, she is doing a great job up front. Lily is doing a dynamite job up on the offensive line. Aditi will also be playing attack.” A trio of sophomores, Kaitlyn Magnani, Keya Patel, and Adrianna Palmer along with junior Lia Bull-Kreg fig-

Virginia Ahl Kyte Virginia Ahl Kyte, cherished wife, mother, grandmother, and aunt, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, August 28th after a brief illness, safe in the knowledge that she was loved almost as intensely as she had loved her family and dear friends. She was 92. Ginny Kyte was a smiling, lovely, faithful, and genuine force of nature. She loved the sand pipers of the Jersey Shore, the lupine fields of early summer in Maine, and any good sporting event, especially college football. She will miss the endless matches of this year’s U.S. Open, where she was routing for a strong finish from Coco Gauff. She baked cookies for every holiday, delighted in her grandchildren’s accomplishments and many adventures, and in her later years knitted over 100 blankets for babies and toddlers along the southern border. Being a wife and mother and grandmother defined her and her last days were filled with a sense of contentment. She carried happy memories of being a newlywed racing sailboats on the Shinnecock Bay to joy-filled years as a young mother on Ross Lane. Her strong will was born from a family lineage she rarely voiced but included Dr. John Peter Ahl, a surgeon in the Revolutionary War; Dr. John Alexander Ahl, a U.S. Congressman from Pennsylvania; and five generations of graduates from Dickinson College in Carlisle, PA, dating back to 1875. One of those graduates was Jim Kyte, fresh off the GI Bill after WWII. He became the greatest love of her life when they married in the summer of 1949. P re ce de d i n de at h by her truly beloved husband, James Mathison Kyte, Jr., she is survived by her loving daughters Kimberly Kyte of Princeton and Jamie Kyte Sapoch and son-in-law John Sapoch of Hopewell, devoted grandchildren Emily and Jack Sapoch, brothers George W. Ahl, Jr. (Trumbull, CT) and Cary W. Ahl (Lancaster, PA), along with a multitude of nieces and nephews. Her family is grateful to the nursing staff and aides at Stonebridge who were a steady and constant lifeline of loving care in her final weeks. A memorial service will be held Saturday September 28th at 11 a.m. at the Princeton University Chapel, Princeton, NJ. Arrangements are under the direction of the Cromwell-Immordino Memo rial Home, 2560 Pennington Road, Pennington, NJ 08534. In lieu of flowers, the family asks consideration of a gift in memory of Virginia Kyte be sent to Princeton University Chapel, Princeton Un iversit y, Mur ray Dodge Hall, Princeton, NJ 08544. The Chapel, her place of worship for 20 years, has the great privilege to quickly respond to issues of pressing need, locally and across the country, in areas of social justice, disaster relief, refugee assistance and direct need. All gifts will honor her life.

mission on Radiation Protection, Princeton Board of Health, Physicians for Social Responsibility of Central NJ, Princeton Community Democratic Organization, Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Princeton, and Princeton Memorial Association. Henry was generous with his knowledge on many subjects and especially appreciated for his ability to help people understand difficult medical choices. He spoke out and took action in support of right behavior in domains as varied as public safety, the environment, consumer protection, silly retail policies, and how to run a meeting, always with a sense of proportion and humor. He will be remembered fondly for his legendary knowledge of Robert’s Rules of Order and grammar, being able to build and fix almost anything, visiting every friend in the hospital, and his love of gadgets, tools, and puns. His last days were peaceful, with visits from close friends and relatives, cared for by the staff at Acorn Glen, Princeton Hospice, and his family. His wife, Dana, and his brother, Edward, prede ceased Henry. He is survived by his daughters (Kim Corfman, Shelley Powsner, and Laurie Powsner), sonsin-law ( Stanley Corfman, Steve Skrovan, and Jonathan Krejci), and grandchildren (Abigail and Daniel Corfman, Samuel and Julia Skrovan, and Benjamin and Jesse Krejci). A memorial service will be held on September 28, 2019 at 1 p.m. at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Princeton, 50 Cherry Hill Road, Princeton, NJ 08540. Donations can be made in Henry’s name to: UUCP (address above), Star Island (30 Middle Street, Portsmouth, NH 03801), and the Princeton Hospice Program (5 Plainsboro Road, Suite 365, Plainsboro, NJ 08536).

Harvey Daniel Rothberg Harvey Daniel Rothberg, 90, died August 18 at the Penn Medicine Princeton Medical Center, Plainsboro. Born November 17, 1928 in Plainfield, he was the son of the late Harvey and Helen (Rosenberg) Rothberg. He grew up in Plainfield, graduating from Plainfield High S chool. At tend ing Princeton Universit y, he graduated magna cum laude in 1949. He then entered Harvard Medical School, where he graduated cum laude in 1953. Medical internship and residency followed at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. He later served as captain in the U.S. Medical Corps in the department of hematology at Walter Reed Hospital in Washing ton, D.C. Dr. Rot hberg later

returned to Massachusetts General for a senior residency. His distinguished medical career at the Princeton Medical Group began in 1960 as a doctor of internal medicine, specializing in hematology and oncology. He was among an early group of physicians to become board certified in the field of medical oncology. During his 40year career in Princeton, he served as president of the medical staff at Princeton Hospital, and as president of the Oncology Society of New Jersey. Dr. Rothberg also served on the hospital’s Biomedical Ethics Committee until June of this year, and helped write the hospital’s version of a Living Will. Motivated by his lifelong interest in education and sharing knowledge with others, he was Clinical Professor of Medicine at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, and served as the first president of the Princeton Regional Board of Education after the Borough and Township merger. Dr. Rothberg wrote successive books documenting the history of Princeton Hospital: The First Fifty Years: The History of Princeton Hospital, 1919-1969, and 25 years later, The First Seventy-Five Years: A History of the Medical Center at Princeton 1919-1994. Upon his retirement in 2000, he was acknowledged with deep gratitude by the Princeton Hospital medical staff for his outstanding contributions to the medical community. Dr. Rothberg was an ardent “P r i nce ton T iger,” proudly marching in the annual Princeton University P-rade, and most notably chairing his Class of ’49’s 70th reunion this past June. Football games, campus lectures, and cultural activities energized his life. He was a longtime member of The Nassau Club, The Old Guard, and Springdale Golf Club. He was also an avid gardener, botanical print collector, and deeply appreciated his books and library. His travel itineraries included visits to the architectural and cultural capitals of the world. He was proud to serve as a docent at the Princeton University Art Museum for 19 years. In 1994, he curated an exhibit at the Princeton University Firestone Library, titled “Masters of Botanical Art” based on his own botanical print collection. After his retirement as a physician, he continued to share valued medical advice with family and friends. Dr. Rothberg is survived by his wife Nancy of 46 years (to the day), his youngest daughter, Nancy Barnes (David) of Chatham, NJ, and their daughters Charlotte and Madeleine, who brought great joy to his life. He is also survived by two older daughters from a previous marriage, Elizabeth Rothberg of New York, N.Y., and Marjorie Rothberg of Wilmington, Del., and his brother, John Charles Rothberg (Diane) of Madison, VA. He was predeceased by his siblings, Anne Carolyn Reed, Nancy Lee Pierson, and Louis Nathan Rothberg. Dr. Rothberg will be remembered for his sense of

humor, empathy, dedication to his patients, profound work ethic, and great love of family. The recipient of many honors, he was awarded The National Conference of Christians and Jews Greater Princeton Area Humanitarian Award in 1996. A private burial took place at the Princeton Cemetery. A public celebration of Dr. Rothberg’s life will be held at the Princeton University Chapel on Saturday, September 21, at 3 p.m. Dr. Rothberg was a great believer in giving back. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to any of the following organizations: The Princeton Area Community Foundation, Doctors Without Borders USA, the American Cancer Society, or a cultural organization in the area of art or horticulture. www.matherhodge.com.
