The Daily Princetonian has a lengthy story about the school's retiring athletic director under the headline, How Gary Walters Won. The story details Walters' targeted response to former Princeton President Bill Bowen's book, The Game of Life.Bowen's response to Walters' criticism, as reported in the story:
“I wouldn’t judge Walters — it’s not worth it,. The defensiveness of some people in the athletic establishment is understandable, but I think it’s really rather sad and pathetic.”
