to my mind the most important biographical fact to know about samuel alito is that he was a member of a group that opposed the admission of women and minorities to princeton www.nytimes.com/2005/11/27/p...

My aunt was in the first co-ed class at Princeton. I ended up going there for grad school, and I wouldn't have even applied if not for my aunt asking my mom if I was considering Princeton.

Princeton wasn't even on my radar. But I applied and was accepted. To my surprise, I ended up loving it at visit day. I had assumed it was a snobby place, but it was chill.

Years later, I asked my aunt about her experience. She did not have much fondness for Princeton. She did not feel welcome there as an undergrad.
