Most ppl agree that Princeton is perhaps the most undergrad focused and firendly coollege along with perhaps the best undergrad education.. however, what are some negative aspects of princeton> i have heard many negative things that are not present in the other ivies. such as racism towards Chinese... not verl culturally diverse.. ppl aer very preppy since most are rich and thjat some times the prof are indifferent... does anyone else mind sharing some of their experience or what they';ve heard?

I'm a chinese freshman at Princeton.

There is no racism at all towards chinese people, though issues of racial tension have popped up on campus throughout the years.

And over 50% of the class is on financial aid. That's a higher or similar figure to any other Ivy.

Yes, you will find rich and preppy people everywhere. All the ivies will have their preppies, but by far they are not the majority here and there is no pressure to be preppy.

As far as I know, my professors care about their students.
