Columbia 1979
Columbia at Princeton
October 13th, 1979
Princeton wins 35-7
Ladies and gentlemen, the Princeton University Marching Band takes a long, hard look at Ten Years of Women at Princeton.
“Princeton Forward”
1969 was a year of big events. Man made it on the moon, Nixon made it to Washington, and women made it at Princeton. Suddently, liquor became more than a weekend pastime, Holder became more than the name of a dorm, and Henry and 1901 didn’t have to, well, you know. The Band salutes 1969 and its beatiful addition to the Princeton campus.
“Both Sides Now” (Band forms ’69)
Although women have graced the Princeton campus for these ten glorious years, it was not until 1979 that they were judged good-looking enough to interest Playboy Magazine. Despite being surrounded by an ever-tightening web of slick opposition, Playboy photographers remained firm in their resolve to offer entertainment for men, degredation for women, and $400 for a full frontal pose. Forming what’s under that stack of Time and New Yorker magazines, the Band asks those of you who snuck out and bought the September issue to stand up and cheer.
“You’ve Got to Hide Your Love Away” (Band forms a Playboy bunny)
Things have progressed greatly since that magical year, but the women of Princeton are still greatly outnumbered. With two men and a math major to every woman, most coeds will have their fill of Princeton men in four years, while many underclass men watch the sex lives slip through their fingers. Looking to a brighter future for sex ratios at Princeton, the Band warns the admissions staff that if they don’t stop, they’ll go sex blind.
