When I talk with Princetonians today, one of the most frequent questions I hear is, ‘what can I do to help the University?’ Here is my answer: be an ambassador for Princeton and for higher education. Tell the story of how Princeton mattered in your life, about the excellence that you see, and about the shared and distinctive mission of colleges and universities in our republic.”
