NEWS ---Princeton alumna, who told female students to get married, defends provocative advice: ‘Find a husband!'

Susan Patton, one of the school's first female students, got plenty of guff over her letter to The Daily Princetonian telling current coeds to ‘Find a husband on campus before you graduate.’ Now she responds to her critics.

Susan A. Patton, a proud Princeton alumna who self-identifies as a living affirmation of the meddling Jewish mother stereotype, raised some eyebrows this week after urging young women attending her vaunted alma mater to be quick about snagging a Princeton man — like her own son.

Princeton women, forget about having it all — snag a man while you still can!
So says Susan Patton, class of '77, one of the first female Princeton University Tigers: hear her roar.
"Here's what nobody is telling you," Patton wrote. "Find a husband on campus before you graduate. Yes, I went there."
This controversial column, which she described as "little more than honest advice from a Jewish mother," outraged countless readers when it appeared in The Daily Princetonian on Friday and then went viral.
