Hit the classroom before the stadium

Princeton NJ — The Alumni Association is once again offering Tiger football fans a chance to hit the classroom before they hit the stadium.

All lectures start at 10 a.m. Here is the schedule:

• Saturday, Nov. 4, in Dodds Auditorium, Robertson Hall (Penn game): Brandice Canes-Wrone, associate professor of politics and public affairs and 1993 alumna, on “Presidents, Public Opinion and Policy.”
