Is Princeton really quiet?

<p>I think it depends a lot on the specific day and where on campus you go. On a rainy day, there just won’t be lots of people outside unless it’s between classes. On a nice day, if you catch us right around exam time or reading period it’ll be deserted unless you wander into the library.<br>
In terms of the “where” part, tours generally make it seem like the north part of the campus, where a lot of the picturesque, old academic buildings are located, is the center of the school. However, a lot of the living and working space that gets used more often than, say, the beautiful but generally empty chapel, is located south of where the tours go.</p>
