For new Hun School Dean of Faculty Dan Walker, skills-based learning, academic risk-taking, and experiential education were all part of his philosophy before he arrived in Princeton. That philosophy has made him right at home at Hun, where those qualities are at the heart of learning.
Tell us about The Hun School’s history and current campus location.
The Hun School was founded by Princeton University math professor John Gale Hun as a tutoring school over a century ago. Dr. Hun was renowned for his ability to inspire a passion for learning in each individual student, and that philosophy remains at the core of our mission today. We are the only boarding school located in downtown Princeton, New Jersey. Our campus sits on 45 idyllic acres overlooking Stony Brook. It is easily accessible from New York and Philadelphia as well as several major airports and train stations. Being The Hun School of Princeton is more than just a name to us. We aspire to be and to inspire our students to be responsible leaders and members of the Princeton community.
The Hun School of Princeton’s new teachers are on campus this week, preparing for the opening of school, with Convocation on September 7th, and the first full day of classes on September 8th. Please join us in extending a warm Hun School welcome to our new faculty and staff.
