In celebration of the 275th anniversary of that date, and as the first engagement effort of Venture Forward, Princeton alumni have planned a digital birthday party next Friday, October 22, called “Orange & Black Day.” We need your help to mark this milestone! Everyone in the Princeton community is invited to show your Princeton pride and spirit.
