We have lived here in Princeton for almost 50 years.We raised our children here and have remained in our starter house. And during that time, I have been extremely proud and happy to be a resident of a wonderful community.But that has been changing.

I guess that the Golden Rule no longer applies during this novel coronavirus crisis. My husband and I don masks every time we go past our driveway and plan to be out and about. It seems that our neighbors in Princeton do not act in the same way. We were out on Thursday, in and around Princeton University and on campus, and I would say that 95% of the people we saw were not wearing masks, and 0% of the young people.

What a great disappointment in this so-called enlightened community. Shame! Why should it be that we seem to care more about our neighbors than our neighbors care about us? Why arent people wearing masks and practicing social distancing? Do people think they are above it all?
