Princeton Undergraduate Student Government

The USG has worked hard in many ways to reduce general costs for Princeton students. One potentially cost-saving area we looked into was Pequod, an independent for-profit business that charges students $30-$200 for a booklet of readings. To reduce this expense, it appears reasonable to simply put all those readings on e-reserves, where students can access them for free.

The new USG administration has hit the ground running, tackling the most pressing issues that face Princeton undergraduates today. From civic engagement to the P/D/F policy, the USG has been working hard to develop sustainable policy solutions that will better the overall undergraduate experience. Specialized USG Working Groups comprising three to five USG officers address issues in their domain through conducting research, meeting with University administration officials, and proposing final policy solutions.
