As one of earliest classes of women at Princeton, I learned resilience, mostly on my own. However, I must say, I was mostly happy while there. At the time I was there (1972-1976), I am sure there were mental health support resources available but I do not really remember if they were well advertised. Not sure that it was intentional, but like STDs–if you needed help, you would need to ask. I am sure if you went to McCosh, you could get help then. I am sure resources are better advertised and more readily available now and that students (and I hope faculty and staff) in the Princeton community have greater comfort in asking for help. Lots of good things have happened in time such as better communication (to include social media) and information more readily available (web, etc). My advice: don’t hesitate to ask for help!
