Pros

Was a teaching assistant as part of my graduate program. The University provides a few hours of required training for new TAs. Other than that, the experience would depend on the Professor teaching the class.

Cons

Princeton students are a unique bunch, but mostly for the best.

Pros

Princeton has a wide variety of well-taught classes and is home to world-renowned researchers. The libraries are excellent (although sometimes crowded). Career services is useful. The research is very academic.

Cons

Graduate housing has recently become overcrowded, however, they are building a new development to fix the issue. Sometimes the research can be too academic.

Pros

The campus is beautiful, and all the staff and fellow researchers are extremely helpful, just generally nice people.

Cons

The pay in my position was pretty low, but I suppose that's understandable considering I was a rising sophomore at the time of employment.
