Princeton is the fourth-oldest college in the United States. Princeton has approximately 4,850 undergraduate students and 2,295 graduate students.

Chartered in 1746 as the College of New Jersey—the name by which it was known for 150 year. Located in Elizabeth for 1 year and then in Newark for 9 years, the College of New Jersey was moved to Princeton in 1756. It was housed in Nassau Hall. Nassau Hall contained the entire College for nearly half a century. Nassau Hall, which in 1783 was also the temporary capitol of the United States. Nassau Hall is building of great history and very beautiful to see, with the two bronze tigers sitting outside the main entrance.

There is such a mix of old and new art and buildings to see when you’re wandering around the campus at Princeton, art by Henry Moore, the new Lewis library build by Gehry which is simply stunning and Princeton University Library, to name but a few. It really is well worth the time taken to explore with so endless lomo possibilities. So take your time to have a good look around !
