As Princeton begins its academic year, the Princeton Alumni Weekly has returned with a new look — our first redesign in more than a decade. In addition to visual changes on the cover and in the magazine, we have added two new sections (Life of the Mind, focusing on Princeton research; and That Was Then, our back-page history feature) and revised several others. You can read more about the changes in my From the Editor column. We consider the redesign to be part of an evolution, not a revolution, and we invite you to share your reactions to the new PAW.

— Marilyn H. Marks *86, editor
