    Margaret Murphy Princeton University FRS 171: Life in a Nuclear-Armed World January 14, 2019 Dean’s Date Extra Assignment Nuclear Shelters and Moral Convictions: An Investigation into Princeton’s Debate over Nuclear Fallout Shelters in the Early 1960s Princeton University is home to some of the most historic aspects of the atomic age. With many Princeton scientists contributing greatly to the Manhattan Project, Princeton served as a key location for the development of nuclear research. However, remaining largely not discussed in the conversation around nuclear weapons and their history at Princeton University are the nuclear fallout shelters built around the campus and community. Nuclear warfare dominated the psychology of American society for the duration of the Cold War. Until the Berlin Wall fell, much of the American population worried about nuclear warfare and actively sought ways, such as fallout shelters, as means to feel prepared. During the 1960s, all across the United States, the idea for places of refuge that would protect Americans during a nuclear attack arose. Promoted by the government as the best way to survive a nuclear attack, many Americans endorsed the idea of a nuclear fallout shelter. Life magazine in January 1962 featured a photo and article about nuclear fallout shelters entitled, “The Drive for Mass Shelters: New Facts You Must Know About Fallout.” A Nobel prize-winning physicist and Princeton Professor, Eugene P. Wigner, tried to convince many that a network of underground tunnels would be the best solution to building long-term shelters.1 And, so concurrent with the rise in interest in nuclear fallout shelters and the timeline of the Cuban Missile Crisis of October 1962, Princeton’s community, 1 “Wigner Seeks Bomb Shelters Beneath Cities,” Daily Princetonian, Vol 89, No 119, November 4, 1965.
