In its November issue, Discover magazine named President Tilghman, psychology professor Elizabeth Gould, and mathematics professor Ingrid Daubechies to its list of the 50 most important women in science. Tilghman was recognized for her work on genetic imprinting. Gould was honored for disproving a fundamental tenet of neuroscience, that the brains of adult animals can never grow new nerve cells. Daubechies was recognized for her work in developing a mathematical tool called wavelets, which is useful in analyzing signals in sound, electronic images, and other physical phenomena.

The university has formed a 14-member committee to find a new admission dean to replace Fred Hargadon, who will retire in June. The committee is made up of students, administrators, and faculty members. Dean of the College Nancy Malkiel will chair the committee. The university hopes to have a new dean in place next summer.

Returning from swim practice around 7 p.m. on October 16, two freshmen, Mary Spencer and Jessica Case, were struck by a car while crossing Washington Road near Fine Hall. Case suffered a broken femur and Spencer was treated for injury to her leg and released that same night. The university is considering constructing a pedestrian bridge over Washington Road.

With a tight job market, seniors told the Daily Princetonian that they are nervous about finding jobs for next year. On-campus recruiting has been down for the past two years, associate director of Career Services Rebecca Ross told the Prince. And many students are simultaneously looking for jobs and applying to graduate schools.

One of the world's largest and most successful experimental fusion machines has been safely disassembled and cleared away. In September, staff at the U.S. Department of Energy's Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory completed the dismantling and removal of the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor, which shut down in 1997 following 15 years of operation. During its experimental life, the reactor set records for fusion performance and made major contributions to the development of fusion as a long-term energy alternative. The PPPL team finished the removal of reactor on schedule and under budget.

An unofficial student organization, Queer Radicals, formed this year, reported the Prince. The group aims to create a more accepting environment for the gay community and other marginalized communities on campus. Members told the Prince that the most immediate issue the group hopes to address is heterosexism, that is, the assumption of heterosexuality. Queer Radicals held their first event, a Kiss-In, two weeks ago.

Scott Ritter, a controversial former weapons inspector for the U.N., spoke at the Woodrow Wilson School last week. He strongly denounced war with Iraq and said that the country doesn’t possess weapons of mass destruction.

The exhibition showcases the work of the French anti-Communist organization Paix et Liberté (Peace and Liberty), which endeavored to combat what it regarded as lies contained in Communist posters. Founded by French politician Jean-Paul David in 1950 against the backdrop of a successful poster campaign by the French Communist Party, Paix et Liberté fought fire with fire by exploiting the themes, language, and symbols of its opponents' posters.

SPORTS

It’s on: Princeton vs. Harvard with Ivy title on the line after Tigers beat Brown
This Saturday, October 26, was the weekend Ivy League football fans had marked on their calendars before the season’s first ball was kicked off.
With the Ancient Eight’s two preseason favorites facing off as Harvard visits Princeton, all that was left was for the two teams to deliver victories early in the season. And the Tigers (4-1, 3-0 Ivy) and Crimson (3-2, 2-0) have delivered, setting up an early season clash of two of the Ivy League’s three unbeaten teams. Penn (4-1, 2-0) has yet to lose, as well.
Princeton heads into the game coming off a 16-14 win over Brown at home on October 19. The Tigers have now won four in a row for the first time since 1997. Cameron Atkinson ’03 has run for more than 100 yards in each of the victories, including a career high 174 against Brown. Atkinson opened the game’s scoring with an 82-yard touchdown run, the longest in the Ivy League this season. Chisom Opara ’03, who had missed the Colgate game due to an ankle injury, came back with 11 catches for 152 yards and a touchdown.
Cornerback Jay McCareins ’05 ended Brown's final two drives with interceptions while covering All-American wide receiver Chas Gessner. McCareins was named the Ivy League’s defensive player of the week.
Harvard lost to Northeastern 17-14 on October 19. Northeastern is ranked 14th in the ESPN/USA Today NCAA Division IAA poll.
Harvard has won the last six meetings between the two longtime rivals. Princeton holds a 50-37-7 advantage in the series.

Win streak reaches 12 games for 13th ranked women’s soccer
Princeton remained the lone undefeated and untied women’s soccer team in the country after the Tigers came back late in the game to beat Brown 2-1 on Saturday, October 19.
Sophomore Esmeralda Negron pulled out the game-winning heroics once again, scoring the winning goal with 10:30 remaining in the game. Negron leads the team with eight goals.
Freshman Emily Behncke tied the game with a goal half way through the second half. Behncke’s performance earned her the Ivy League Rookie of the Week Award for the second time this season.
The Tigers are now 12-0 overall and 5-0 in the Ivy League. They can clinch the league title with either a win over Harvard on Saturday, October 26, or on November 2 against Cornell.

Men's water polo beats Navy, 9-8, in battle of CWPA's two, top-ranked teams
Princeton went into its October 19 match with Navy looking up at the midshipmen in the Collegiate Water Polo Associations' men's rankings. But after a hard-fought 9-8 win, the Tigers may claim the top ranking in the CWPA when they come out this week, October 23.
Freshman Jamal Motlagh scored the game-winner in Grove City, Pennsylvania and helped Princeton improve to 14-5. Navy led 6-4 going into halftime, but Princeton's defense tightened up and shut Navy down just enough to snag the one-goal victory.
The Tigers also defeated Gannon, Grove City, and Bucknell during the CWPA league weekend. Princeton could face Navy again this weekend, October 25-26, as the Tigers travel to Annapolis for the ECAC championships.

Women’s field hockey pounds Brown, 9-1; undefeated in Ivy
Senior Ilvy Friebe exploded for four goals on Saturday, October 19, to lead Princeton field hockey to a 9-1 win over Brown at home.
The 16th-ranked Tigers moved to 7-5 overall and are a perfect 4-0 in the Ivy League. Princeton hosts Harvard (9-3, 4-0) Saturday, October 26, in a battle of the league’s two remaining undefeated teams.

Split for women’s volleyball as they beat Yale and fall to Brown
With a 3-1 win over Yale on Saturday, October 19, Princeton’s women’s volleyball team kept itself in the hunt for the Ivy title. Lauren Grumet ’06 led the Tigers with 15 kills in the road victory in New Haven.
Princeton (9-3, 3-2 Ivy) lost to Brown 3-0 the night before in Rhode Island. The Tigers return home this weekend with games against Dartmouth (Friday, October 25) and Harvard (Saturday, October 26).

It’s another tie for men’s soccer against Brown; now 2-6-4 on the season
Ryan Rich ’05 scored Princeton’s lone goal first, but the Tigers let Brown come back to tie their October 18 matchup 1-1 in Princeton.
Earlier in the week, Princeton tied Loyola 1-1 in Maryland. Senior Bob Nye scored the game-tying goal with seven minutes left in the game. The Tiger are now 2-6-4 on the season. They continue a three-game homestand on Saturday, October 26, against Harvard.

U.S. team hands women’s lacrosse 15-4 loss in exhibition
The reigning NCAA women’s lacrosse champions were no match for a more experienced and skilled U.S. national team on October 16. The U.S. team had 10 different players – including two former Tigers – score goals as they downed Princeton 15-4 in an exhibition at Class of 1952 Stadium.
Lindsey Biles ’05 scored two goals for Princeton, while Whitney Miller ’03 and Liza Hillenbrand ’04 each scored one.
Princeton alums Julie Shaner ’01 and Lucy Small ’99 each scored for USA while Princeton's all-time leading scorer, Crista Samaras ’99, notched an assist.
