About Us
Princeton Pro-Life is a student-run organization devoted to promoting a culture of life on campus and in the world beyond.
We host speakers, sponsor conferences, write editorials, and coordinate with other campus organizations to raise awareness of the pro-life message.
We also organize a trip to the annual March for Life in Washington D.C. in January.
Our motto, "Condiscipulorum Absentium Gratia," summarizes why we do what we do.
Translated "for the sake of our missing classmates," the motto is a reminder of the many lives lost to abortion every day, some of whom would have been here at Princeton with us now, had they been allowed to live.
