The video "Beyond FitzRandolph Gate" features 10 Princeton graduating seniors who made an impact on the world outside of campus before their undergraduate years came to a close at this year's Commencement ceremony. Among the students featured is Alexandria Brown (above), who tutored middle school students in Trenton, N.J., through Princeton Academic Curriculum Tutoring, which is part of a civic internship program by the University's Center for African American Studies.
