IN PRINT: Dorm Rooms of the Stars

Just in time for Reunions, a heaping dose of Princetoniana in the New York Times.  Ever wonder where Elena Kagan lived while she was a Tiger?  Sonia Sotomayor?  Bill Bradley?The University doesn't publicize any of that information, but it's available in the school's archives.  Not all famous rooms have lasted into the 21st century, however:

Eager to bed down where James Stewart, the Hollywood legend, snoozed when he was part of Princeton’s class of 1932? Dream on. His freshman-year address at 8 North Reunion was razed, even though John Fitzgerald Kennedy, a future president, also briefly bunked at Reunion...And don’t bother searching for former Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld’s former home at 423 Brown. It is now a women’s restroom.

Whoa.  That's the bathroom my high school friend threw up in after eating some bad fish!  At Princeton, history is truly all around us.photo: Joe Shlabotnik, Flickr
