The first sight at Princeton upon disembarking.
| A look at some of the common old brick buildings on campus.
One can almost see the chill in the air by how the light hits
the tree branches.

| The witty base of the Einstein statue.

to a neat effect!

Princeton had many sayings embossed on buildings.
This one struck me both as a connection to Princeton ("gothic towers") and
the appropriateness of the setting for a story by Lovecraft ("unseen things
that do not die").
I believe this quote appeared in McCosh Arch by the english building, if
I remember correctly.
| The interior of Princeton's church.
