Princeton University Controversy over Campus Paper Editorials

Diversity of opinion at a campus newspaper at Princeton, the Princetonian, was reversed by the top board members of the paper:

While most campus newspapers’ editorial boards consist of top editors, the Princetonian had a unique set-up in which its editorial board was made of students representing a wide and diverse swath of campus life, as well as students who leaned left, right and center.

Earlier this month, however, that independent board was dissolved by the Princetonian’s top editors, who reverted to the more common model of having senior editors pen unsigned editorials.
