The Princeton Humanities Symposium took place back in September. The way it worked is the guidance counselor recommended one person from the school, and Princeton selected about 80 people from the US to come to a two-day symposium. A day was spent on precepts from Pton humanities professors, and there were speeches from different people to encourage studying the arts at Princeton.

<p>I'm just curious as to what role it might play in the admissions process. Some people mentioned in last year's ED thread that they thought it helped them.</p>
