Tilghman to freshmen: Embrace 'contradiction' to be experts and generalists
Posted September 12, 2010; 09:00 p.m.
Challenging the freshman class to embrace two ideas that might seem to be in contradiction, Princeton President Shirley M. Tilghman told incoming students at Opening Exercises Sunday (Sept. 12) to spend their Princeton career building deep expertise in a specialty while also developing broad understanding.
President Shirley M. Tilghman welcomes the freshmen, and in her address challenges them to develop both specialized expertise and broad understanding.
"Narrow expertise is necessary, but it is not sufficient to contribute to complex problem-solving, while, on the other hand, a jack-of-all-trades who is a master of none brings little to the table," Tilghman said in her address. "Your liberal education will reconcile this contradiction by endowing you with the mantles of both expert and generalist."
Tilghman borrowed from the words of a famous Princetonian, author F. Scott Fitzgerald of the class of 1917, telling the students that "the test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function."
Rahul Subramaniam, a member of the class of 2011, offers a reading from the Hindu Vedas, among readings from students from various religious and philosophical traditions.
The new students and their families -- joined by new and returning graduate students, other undergraduates, faculty and staff -- filled the University Chapel and two simulcast sites for the interfaith service that traditionally marks the start of each academic year. Classes begin on Thursday, Sept. 16.
Members of the class of 2014 entered the chapel with other students in their respective residential colleges. Each group was led by a student carrying a colorful banner bearing the college shield, as the students preceded faculty members and administrators in academic regalia. The procession followed African drummers and kite-bearers waving shimmering pieces of cloth on long poles.
In addition to Tilghman's address, the event included music, prayers and readings from various religious and philosophical traditions. Undergraduate students also were recognized for their academic achievements during the previous year.
The ceremony began with a welcome from Tilghman to the new and returning members of the University community. She noted that the 1,312 members of the class of 2014 hail from 48 states, and 47 countries on six continents, and that among the 636 new graduate students, 39 percent are citizens of other countries, a testament to the fact that Princeton is truly an international university.
As students fill the chapel, people flying kites on long poles lead the procession of faculty members and administrators in academic regalia.
In expounding on her advice for students to use their time at Princeton becoming both experts and generalists, Tilghman told them that Princeton's goal "is to inculcate mental flexibility, resilience and openness to change so that you are prepared for anything."She used as an example the search for energy alternatives, recounting the topics of senior theses written by members of the class of 2009 who concentrated their studies in anthropology, geosciences, mathematics and the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs.
"What is striking about these topics is the very different disciplinary expertise each student brought to bear on an environmental issue," Tilghman said. "Yet their contributions would be destined to have limited impact if they were unable to frame them and integrate them into a much broader context."
Tilghman warned the students against developing narrow perspectives, citing the case of lobbying by policymakers for investments in the use of corn alcohol as fuel that was later determined by scientists to use more energy to produce than the energy value of the product. She told students, "By requiring that you sample the breadth of human knowledge through the distribution requirements at the same time as you are learning how to master a single question, the University is preparing you to avoid siloed thinking and the missteps that can easily arise from it."
Following the ceremony, banner bearers with flags from each residential college escort the class of 2014 from the chapel toward FitzRandolph Gate for the "pre-rade."
She encouraged students to embrace the apparent contradiction of pursuing a specific career by preparing themselves for any career.
The Princeton Band performs at the annual "pre-rade."
"By making this your approach, you will go a long way to ensuring that the next four years will be among the most exciting and rewarding of your lives," she said.
After the ceremony, the freshmen participated in a "pre-rade" from the chapel through FitzRandolph Gates, officially entering the campus to start their undergraduate experience while being cheered and greeted by other Princetonians.
Opening Exercises was videotaped and will be available online for viewing.
During the pre-rade, the freshmen officially enter the campus to start their undergraduate experience, including receiving instructions from other Princeton students and alumni on how to do the traditional locomotive cheer (with the words "Sis! Boom! Ahhh!").
Freshmen at the pre-rade enter the campus to start their undergraduate experience, greeted with cheers and "high fives" from fellow Princetonians.

Limited Edition Giclee - click here to find out more.
Sometimes described as "digital lithographs", giclees are created using extremely sophisticated computer equipment to create a reproduction virtually indistinguishable from the original.
Most giclees start with an original painting or illustration in oil, watercolour, or charcoal. The original work is scanned and colour corrected under the supervision of the artist before being printed with a extremely high resolution giclee printer. From the French term for "spray of ink", giclee printers lay down millions of microscopic ink droplets with such precision that the images, colours, and subtle nuances of the original piece are reproduced with breathtaking accuracy and beauty.
Giclees are created on high quality acid-free rag paper or on canvas, and are generally done in limited editions of no more than 750 pieces. They are often signed by the artist.
Limited edition giclees are a beautiful addition to any home and any art collection.
What is Conservation Glass?
Standard glass is suitable for most artwork in most homes. As ambient (indirect) sunlight and artificial light do not present a fading risk, most people do not require special UV filtering glass.
If you have a lot of direct sunlight in your home, you may want to upgrade your artwork purchase to conservation glass. Conservation glass filters out 97% of harmful UV rays and will prevent fading of signatures and artwork, as well as yellowing of paper.
The best thing to do is avoid hanging any art or photographs in direct sunlight. If you can't avoid direct sunlight, conservation glass is well worth the additional cost.

Abby Update: Scary
Abby's temperature is now 103.2. She now has green drainage coming from her g-tube wound. I am more concerned now than I have ever been for Abby.
We would appreciate it if you pray and others to pray as well.
I know I twittered that Abby's' doctors were considering taking her g-tube out, but now it looks like it will need to stay in. The surgeon thinks that he will need to surgically remove the damaged tissue, but he believes he will be able to keep the gastric tube in the same spot. But, they won't be able to perform the surgery until her blood work improves.
The wound is getting more painful, even though she is on a LOT of pain medicine, it is draining large amounts of green fluid and it has a strong odor (not a good sign). Abby is worried about the drainage and so are we. This development is scary.
Thank you for praying and caring about Abby and our family.

- March 12, 2009 at 4:54 PM
I am so sorry to read your report and find this out about Abby. My heart aches for that baby, she is suffering so much. I know that it is through the strength that God gives you that you can hold up under this.I am a stranger to her and it is affecting me deeply, i cant imagine being her Mommy. Being a nurse i know you understand exactly what is going on and how dangerous each change with Abby is, and i am praying hard for you as well.I know the days and nights are long for you, watching and caring for her and not being able to help her get better. God knew that you and Brent would take the best care of her and that is why He placed her in your family.It is so hard to watch an older love one suffer with cancer, but a child like Abby, so heartbreaking,
I am keeping Abby in my heart and in my prayers, and i pray the next update will have better news, God Bless your Family
- March 12, 2009 at 4:55 PM
Praying for dear, sweet Abby!! Dear Lord Jesus, wrap your loving arms around little Abby and give her extra strength to fight the battle that rages in her body. Give the drs and nurses that are caring for her the knowledge they need to help her little body heal itself so that she can once again be home with her loving family. Give Michelle and Brent the strength to be there for Abby in all her pain!!

My prayers are with you - My God give you the strength you need - in mind, body and spirit. My heart aches to know that Abby is in such pain and even moreso that she is worried about this new development. Such a sweet young soul shouldn't have to worry about things like gree ick from wounds that they have. As I think of Jesus' suffering before Easter - I think of Abby and pray that a "Simon" comes to her to help ease her pain. My you each be blessed and filled with wisdom and may the great surgeon guide your hands, heart, mind and soul (as well as ALL of Abby's caregivers too). God Bless You All - Especially you sweet little angel, Abby!

Just in the book of Luke again... where Christ
is the "Great Physician". Luke chapter 7: ( about
a man who is healed far away.... it is the slave of
a Roman army captain. Jesus doesn't even have
to go to the slave to heal him, because the army
captain's faith is so strong... and he knows that
Jesus can just speak and heal his slave).
So we know that we can claim healing for Abby
in the name of Jesus no matter how geographically
far we are from her. So I pray for healing now...
for the infection to disappear, for her temperature
to lower, for her body to produce healthy cell
growth, and for nutrients from her food to bring
health to her, and for rest and peace for all of
you during this difficult time.

As we go about our daily works little Abby is fighting for her life, every second of everyday. We don't understand why Abby is sick, but we do know that You will provide all that is needed for us all, and that you love Abby even more than we do. You know we are weak, especially when it comes to our children, so Father, i ask you to please please take Abby's pain away, let her white cell count come back up to fight all the infection in her little body, give her peace Lord when she is scared, give her parents the strength and comfort they need to be bale to stay strong and care for Abby, give the Dr.s and nurses a better understanding of what to do for Abby, we trust you Lord, you are the great physician, we need you Lord, please God come upon the scene in her room and hold little Abby close to you. I can't imagine what her body is going through. Please hear our cries for Abby, we need a miracle Lord, we trust and believe in you for all things. We will always give you the praise and glory, I ask this all in Jesus name, amen. God bless Abby and her family

I'm praying for Abby, and all of you. Our God is much bigger than this extreme trial. Praying that her marrow will begin to make healthy blood cells, that her g-tube infection will heal, that the cancer will go away for good, that she would not suffer, that you all would experience the Lord's comfort and peace in a big way, for direction for her caregivers, that you all may be able to rest, and for your financial needs, that the Lord would preserve her life, but mostly that His will be done, and in all things the Lord Jesus Christ would be glorified.
In Christ,

Dragons are creatures with nearly unlimited life spans. They can survive for long periods of time, and no one has found a dragon that has died of old age. Adolescence is usually marked by the growth of a hatchling's wings, although not all breeds of dragons grow wings and some breeds have other traits that indicate the beginning of maturation. Once they hit adolescence, hatchlings change quickly, maturing to their full forms in only 2 years.
Dragons don't communicate with each other verbally, but they will growl to scare off predators and frighten prey. Young dragons will emit an extremely high-pitched squeal when they are frightened. To communicate, they use telepathy with each other and to speak to other creatures.
Magi Dragons are, as their name suggests, primarily magic users. They rarely use physical forms of attack. They eat anything they can kill, which is almost everything. They won't kill unprovoked except when hunting, although they may kill humans if in danger. Their strong magic makes them one of the most feared breeds of dragons.

I spent the better part of the weekend at Camp Pioneer. This weekend, among other things, the camp celebrated its 75th Anniversary. I received an invitation along with other Scoutmasters and folks throughout the Council, so I RSVP'd and attended. It was extra special as my oldest son is on Staff at Camp Pioneer this year, so it was an opportunity to see him. My Troop is heading up to Pioneer in a week, so it was also a real good chance to pick up some Blue cards, look at the program areas and just hang out in my favorite camp our Council has.
Friday night was the celebration for the Anniversary. They had a special dinner and then a program in the Dinning Hall. A slide show of the history of the camp and some "Then and Now" pictures. The 1974 Aquatics staff was there.. all of them. It was neat to hear their stories and meet them. They have all gone on to do good things with their lives and to hear them speak about the camp with such fondness really hit me.
Their collective love for this camp brought them back, not only as youth, (many had staffed at the camp for up to 7 years), but now to be a part of the 75th Anniversary. What really touched me was the strong tradition that they embodied. This was particularly special to see and as I watched today's staff interact with them I saw light bulbs flash on. I saw the passing of the torch.
I brought our son home for the night and as we drove the 128 miles we talked about this tradition at Camp Pioneer. He said that up until he talked and heard the 1974 staff share their stories he did not understand where some of the stuff they did came from. Songs that are sung, ways that programs are introduced, skits, and camp traditions. It made the camp come alive for all us that love Camp Pioneer.
I have always loved Camp Pioneer and this weekend really increased that love. Yesterday before I left camp I sat and looked over the spectacular view. The lake and the over looking Mt. Jefferson called me. As I sat in the Chapel bowl I could hear the staff wrapping up the end of the week's session with the Camp Song.
Camp Pioneer we're loyal to your code, Together we will hike the eagle road, We love your lofty pines and lake so blue, Camp Pioneer our memories always turn to you, In love and friendship we will work and play, A helping hand to each upon his way, And may our faces shine, And spirits intertwine, Camp Pioneer, that's why we're here, Camp Pioneer.
Hip Hip Hooray, Hip Hip Hooray, Hooray, Hip Hip!!
It brought a smile to my face remembering the 1974 staff singing the song on Friday night along side the current staff.
Then as we walked out to the parking lot after dropping John off to head home the sound of Pioneer Vespers rang in my head. I could not help but feel that Scouting traditions are alive and well and summer camp is that place that really brings it out in all of us.
When this land was untamed and free, A few brave men built a great country, Fighting for freedom, Despite their fears, We know these men as Pioneers,
High in the mountains where the green meets blue, Camp Pioneer's calling you.
Here in the Cascades, the spirit lives on, A brotherhood of love, our voices in song, Learning to be leaders, For Future years, We shall be known as the new Pioneers,
High in the mountains where the green meets blue, Camp Pioneer's calling you. Camp Pioneer is calling you."
Have a Great Scouting Day!

We live in a society obsessed with youth and wrinkle-free skin, so it's not surprising that most people are looking for ways to prevent wrinkles, and reduce the look of the ones they have. Fortunately, there are ways to do both.
What Causes Them?
Wrinkles appear as the production of collagen and elastin in the dermis of the skin decreases due to aging and exposure to the sun. Collagen and elastin give skin its structural support and elasticity, and when it declines, skin can wrinkle and sag. In addition, the outer layer of the skin called the epidermis thins out with age. This allows moisture to be lost, and skin becomes drier.
Not everyone ages at the same rate. The age at which a person develops wrinkles depends on genetics and lifestyle habits. Lifestyle factors that contribute to wrinkling and premature aging include sun exposure, smoking, a poor diet and overuse of alcohol. Fortunately, many lines can be minimized by wearing sunscreen and sun protective clothing year round. Most premature aging is caused by the sun.
Wearing a sunscreen that guards against both UVA and UVB rays year round should be a priority. It won't take away wrinkles that have already formed, but it will help to reduce the chances of new ones from forming.
Research shows that products containing vitamin C help to protect against lines and wrinkles and improve the appearance of pre-existing ones. Vitamin C is an antioxidant vitamin that fights the effects of free radicals fromsunlight that prematurely age skin. In addition, it stimulates the production of collagen, the protein that gives skin its support and resiliency. This helps to improve the appearance of fine lines that make skin look older.
For deeper wrinkles, a peptide product can attack deeper lines on multiple levels. These peptides stimulate collagen production and relax tight wrinkles in a manner similar to Botox without the painful injections. They also protect against future skin aging.
Another ingredient that improves the texture of aging skin while minimizing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles is glycolic acid. This is a type of alpha-hydroxy acid that typically comes from sugar cane. This weak acid improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in two ways. It helps to slough off dead skin cells in the outer layer of the skin that contribute to a dull appearance, and it boosts the production of collagen. The result is skin that looks smoother and more youthful.
Other Treatments
Dermatologists often prescribe prescription retinoids to treat wrinkles. This is an effective treatment, but many people experience redness and skin irritation when they use them. One alternative is to use products containing retinols. Retinols fight wrinkles without the skin irritation and redness that make retinoids so difficult to tolerate.
A dermatologist or plastic surgeon can do a series of facial peels or a laser treatment to improve the appearance of deeper lines, and they can also inject them with a filler to plump up the underlying dermis and fill in the wrinkle. Botox is an alternative for lines that appear only with facial movement. The drawback to these procedures is cost and laser treatments require downtime for recovery. These more costly, invasive procedures are best reserved for wrinkles that don't respond to home treatments.

Varilight V-Dim (Standard) Series Dimension Screwless Iridium Black, 3 Gang (Triple), 1 or 2 Way 3x250 Watt Push on/Push off Standard Dimmer Switch with Iridium Black Knobs (Double Plate). Please Note: The Iridium Range has a special coating on the plates, which is fine for all bulb types EXCEPT CFL LIGHTING, which produces a petrol effect on the plate. Please choose a different range if using CFL lamps/bulbs.VARILIGHT Dimmer Switches have an industry-wide reputation for exceptional performance, long life and innovation at attractive prices. Like all Varilight products these V-Dim (Standard) Series dimmers are designed to meet the latest European Safety Legislation.It is important to select the correct dimmer switch for your application so please read the following information carefully.The lights are dimmed by a rotary control knob and turned on and off by a push on/off action. V-Dim Push on/off dimmers are suitable for 1-way and 2-way circuits.Our V-Dim Series Standard Dimmers are Leading Edge and can be used with mains voltage lighting and good quality Low Voltage Electronic Transformers. When using Electronic Low Voltage Transformers we recommend that a maximum of 5 good quality dimmable Electronic Transformers are used (10 if Varilight) with this Dimmer range. Please note: add the watts of the bulbs/lamps if using Varilight Transformers, to determine which dimmer to select, but if using another manufacturer of Transformer, add up the VA of the Transformers so it does not exceed the maximum of the dimmer. Please note that noise levels can depend on the quality of the Transformer being used. The best suited dimmer series for dimming Electronic Low Voltage Transformers is the V-Pro Series, which has many features including Dimmer Buzz Elimination, that is created from the Transformers. If using 6+ non Varilight Transformers then choose the V-Pro or V-Plus Series. The V-Dim Series Standard Push on/off Dimmers can be used in 2-way circuits (where one lighting circuit is controlled from two locations). In order to achieve 2-way switching, they must be paired with a standard 2-way switch in the other location. 3-way switching can be achieved by adding an intermediate switch in to the circuit. When using V-Dim Standard Push on/off Dimmers in a 2 or 3-way circuit the lights can only be dimmed from the location that the dimmer is situated in. Please note, if total dimming is preferred from many switched locations, in a 2, 3 or more way circuit then choose the Varilight Touch and Remote range of dimmers, in conjunction with Slave Dimmers.The V-Dim Series Standard Push on/off Dimmers can be used for mains incandescent GLS lamps (standard mains light bulbs), up to the maximum load as specified on the dimmer. They can also dim GU10 or similar Hi Spot Mains Halogen lamps (only use quality UK supplied lamps) up to the maximum load as specified on dimmer. Choose V-Pro Dimmer Series if dimming LED's. The V-Dim Push on/off Series are NOT suitable for use with wire wound Transformers or Fans and other inductive loads (for these products see The V-Plus [Intelligent IQ] Dimmer Series, and Fan Regulating dimmers). Please check with manufacturer of appliance to be dimmed.This Dimmer has a maximum of 250 Watts and minimum of 40 Watts.
