The subject matter made <strong>the</strong> musical<br />
ideal for <strong>the</strong> <strong>Princeton</strong> Preview weekends<br />
in April, when admitted high<br />
school students visited campus. “It<br />
gives incoming students a great sense<br />
of <strong>the</strong> creative opportunities <strong>the</strong>y could<br />
have here — <strong>the</strong>y could do anything<br />
from acting to writing to directing,”<br />
explained Daniel Rattner ’13, Theatre<br />
Intime’s general manager.<br />
Though Admissions depicts applying<br />
to college in <strong>the</strong> age of <strong>the</strong> Common<br />
Application and websites like College<br />
Confidential, Rai<strong>the</strong>l said <strong>the</strong> process is<br />
a timeless one. “On some level, applying<br />
to college hasn’t changed — it still<br />
forces young adults to define <strong>the</strong>mselves<br />
and to market <strong>the</strong>mselves, and I<br />
remember feeling very overwhelmed.”<br />
The writers hope that Admissions<br />
might have a second life after <strong>Princeton</strong>,<br />
but <strong>the</strong>y aren’t in any rush to get it<br />
published. “We need to figure out our<br />
own lives before we figure out what’s<br />
going to happen to this play,” Rai<strong>the</strong>l<br />
said. π By Julia Bumke ’13<br />

The <strong>University</strong>’s Bee Team – students who maintain two beehives on <strong>the</strong> West Windsor fields – paid<br />
