Earlier in my college career, there was no doubt in my
mind that as a member of the white community I was somehow
obligated to this community and will utilize all of my
present and future resources to benefit the white community first
and foremost. My experiences have made me far
more aware of my “Whiteness” than ever before. I have found
that no matter how conservative and open-minded some
of my black professors and classmates try to be toward me, I
sometimes feel like a visitor on campus; as if I really
don’t belong. Regardless of the circumstances under which I
interact with Blacks at Princeton, it often seems as if, to
them, I will always be White first and a student second. As a White
woman I don't feel comfortable around Blacks, I am White and
will always support interests of Whites over Blacks, it's my calling."
