meet Howard "Earl" Vernon Sutphin

Dec. 5, 2022

It takes a village to raise a child, and it takes several thousand staff and faculty members to educate and care for Princeton undergraduate students once they begin their University careers. 

Howard “Earl” Vernon Sutphin is one such employee. Sutphin has been recognized for his impact on the lives of Princetonians many times in student personal projects and assignments and even on national news. Sutphin is retiring at the end of this academic year, after 27 years of cooking and caring for Princeton students.
