Seven students have been named winners of the 2023 Spirit of Princeton Award, honoring Princeton University undergraduates for positive contributions to campus life.
The Pyne Honor Prize, established in 1921, is awarded to the seniors who have most clearly manifested excellent scholarship, strength of character and effective leadership. Previous recipients include U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor and the late Princeton President Emeritus Robert F. Goheen.
“I just really love how Princeton has such an emphasis on service: there’s a whole building and center and staff dedicated to community service, and I have really enjoyed finding that community,” Stark told the Daily Princetonian.
