An article published on Tuesday, February 26, in The Daily Princetonian said Marcos was "not an average student" at Princeton.



The article quoted a letter from then-Philippine consul general Ernesto Pineda addressed to then-dean of student affairs Adele Simmons. The letter, dated July 30, 1973, said Marcos would live outside the campus, be escorted by Philippine security personnel, and have a Filipino chauffeur drive her to and from the university.



Another article by the Prince published on September 11, 1973, reported the Asian-American Students Association (AASA) had protested Marcos' admission to Princeton.



"The AASA worried that the presence of Marcos and her security personnel would be threatening to students who were critical of her father’s government," said The Daily Princetonian.
