Ella Gantman '23 is a goalkeeper for Princeton women's soccer. Jovan Aigbekaen '23 is a hurdler for Princeton men's track and field. Nicholas No '22 is a sabreur for Princeton men's fencing. The three of them join Susan (2:27) to discuss their Perspectives on entering the fall without sports (4:34), pros and cons of Princeton's athletics and overall institution (21:46), and their personal experiences as minorities on campus (40:22). The students then baffle at the University's most recent decision to go fully online (53:18) and learn how students can sign up to be poll workers for November (58:13). Finally, the students answer your Pitched questions (1:00:17), determining whether or not non-athletes can ride scooters on campus, first-year regrets, tips on virtual learning, media recs, and how each athlete got into their sport.
