In honor of the first full week of classes (fuck you, Penn administration, for not shutting down the university today), we decided to bring back your favorite feature. You're welcome! Follow along as we break down campus' 5 can't-miss events of the week, plus a Philly Pick of the Week, selected with none other than YOU in mind.
A Conversation with Jonah Platt
When? THIS AFTERNOON, 4:30 p.m.
Where? Platt
Why? Between this event and this recent announcement, it seems Penn just can't get enough of Broadway's finest.
Bring? Questions. He'll be answering 'em!
When? Wednesday, 6 p.m.
Where? Elmo's
Why? Who better to take fashion advice from than Penn students, who very obviously have their own distinctive sartorial sensibilities?

Wharton Women Business Conference 2016
When? Friday, 10 a.m.
Where? JMHH, 8th floor

Leveraging Your Creative Experience in a Professional Setting
When? Friday, 12:30 p.m.

Bring? Your ignorance – because if you think all those hell weeks you put yourself through are going to prove worthwhile post-grad, then you are sorely mistaken.
Philly Pick of the Week
When? Saturday, 2 p.m.
Where? See Facebook event for full list of participants
Why? The girls in our newest PC were born in 1998 and are claiming they're 90's kids, and it's fucking annoying.
