This is the Princeton Alumni Weekly’s PAWcast, where we talk with Princetonians about what’s happening on campus and beyond. At the end of July, a pretty big story appeared on The Daily Princetonian’s website, one that took Raphaela Gold ’26 about a year and a half to report. It was a deep dive into mental health care on Princeton’s campus, and in particular into what happens to students who experience the most severe crises, the kind that might require hospitalization or a leave of absence. On the PAWcast she discussed how she reported the story — and what she found.
