a nice quote

<p>Here's the lovely last paragraph of an article in today's Prince by the dean of the Woodrow Wilson School, who did her undergrad at Princeton:</p>

<p>"That said, what has remained mostly the same about the Princeton I remember, and what must always remain, is the physical beauty of the place we are privileged to live, work and walk in. I have always maintained that part of the extraordinary loyalty of Princeton alumni is traceable to our collective memories of the light falling just so through an archway, the magnolias in blossom along Scudder Plaza, the bursts of color in Prospect Garden, the shadows of the early morning on Lake Carnegie and the snow falling just about anywhere. Beauty is a gift, one that opens the mind and the soul. The beauty of Princeton is a gift that endures, and that encourages all of us to give back."</p>

<p>The overall article is about how Princeton has become more diverse since she attended: <a href="http://www.dailyprincetonian.com/archives/2005/03/11/opinion/12341.shtml%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.dailyprincetonian.com/archives/2005/03/11/opinion/12341.shtml&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Indeed, lovely.</p>
