The Ivy League Impostor

By Jonathan Bernstein ’00

Published June 14, 2016

This faux-memoir is told by Thurston Green, your typical party-going Princeton University sophomore, but what makes Thurston unique is that he’s not actually a college student at all. In The Ivy League Impostor, Jonathan Bernstein ’00 tells the story of a deliveryman turned popular undergraduate student and explores the nature of privilege, love, sex, and religion.
