The Malcolm S. Forbes Jr. '70 College is one of the seven residential colleges that house all freshmen and sophomores at Princeton University. One of the two first residential colleges at Princeton (along with Mathey College), it was originally called Princeton Inn College after the former hotel where it is housed. Following a gift to the school by Malcolm S. Forbes Sr. '41 in 1984 in honor of his son, Steve, the college was renamed Forbes. Steve's daughter, Catherine Forbes '99, was a member of Forbes College while attending Princeton.
