Five months after the shops in the Radian's shadow were supposed to open, we're finally seeing signs of life. We took a look beyond the chain-link fence to give you a first glimpse at the new restaurants at 40th and Sansom:
Penn statues are known for being quasi-romantic: our blog's namesake, the LOVE statue, and...those absorbent red sticks at 39th and Locust. But things just got elevated to a whole new level: Moments ago, someone who just completed sex ed applied a string to the tampons. LOL.
Congrats, Freshmen! You've finished your post-high school summer full of "Relevant" "Experience" and are ready to dust off the lady pants just in time for today's Career Fair. Here's your guide to OCR, filled with advice from our favorite 90's top hits (were you even born yet?):
Way before when you decided to be a Consumer Psych minor because you could, like, totally put Wharton on your resume, you had never set foot in Huntsman. Now there's one more reason to stay far, far away: JMHH staff will take your stuff if you leave it unattended in the study lounge. Watch out! We'd love to say we'll go back to VP, but a tipster tells us that Mark's Café is shut down due to a cockroach infestation. Stay tuned for details.
Hey Day has come and gone, so seniors are not really seniors anymore, but also they're like not really graduates yet, which is kinda weird. Anyway, if any Class of '15 people already feel nostalgic for their three years past, check out this time lapse, and see if you can spot all 600+ people who liked their Class Board President's prof pic.

Another Day, Another Flash Poll -- So VOTE VOTE VOTE for the Best Place to Plug In, today's poll in the DP's Best of Penn series.
Lying In Bed? -- So are we! Before you wake up for your 10:30am, remember to VOTE for today's Best of Penn. Today's Flash Poll is all about which restaurant reigns supreme when it comes to ordering in. Our personal favorite (while lying in bed): the pizza delivery guy.
We've got Grubhub for food, Netflix for movies, Amazon Prime for textbooks, and pledges for class notes.
Checking emails? We're with ya. Like, we get it. You really need to swipe down and refresh your Mail app mid-date Night, mid-lecture, mid-sex – all the time – because you're so important and get, like, hundreds of emails per hour. Fine.
Our three newest goals in life: (1) take a selfie with Ellen, (2) have a snow day, and (3) take a selfie with Ellen on a snow day.
It's That Time Of Year Again -- Penn In Touch now has all of the next semester's courses online which means it's time to craft that perfect four-day-weekend-with-no-class-before-1:30pm schedule. Let the procrastination begin!
Courtesy of Penn Vet comes the most voyeuristically creepy-but-cute live-stream we've ever seen. It's Pixar movie meets Miracle of Life--right here at Penn!
Happy V-day, all! Whether you've planned out your Friday from morning (breakfast in bed) through evening (other stuff in bed), or if you're scrambling for a box of chocolates minutes before she wakes up, read our step-by-step guide to being that obnoxious couple on campus. Yes, that one.
This week’s line up of senior-only events (because Juniors have NO idea where Tap House is) features a tour-de-University City, where Sansom seems like an eternity away and seeing a Wig show is the closest we get to “exploring Philly.” Tap House Quizzo: Exclusivity factor: ?. You’ll need an ID and a tolerance for overpriced IPAs (check out those hops!). If you’re still not 21, enjoy the tonic on the rocks and seeing your graduating class’ horrifying competitive streak. Mask and Wig: Exclusivity factor: ?. Yes, technically this is seniors only, though anyone can buy tickets with the promo code. Note to overambitious Freshmen considering showing up: Shouldn’t you be, like, pledging or something? Vagina Monologues: Exclusivity factor: ?. Because this event wasn’t blasted over every other listserv we’re on. And we prefer vagina dialogues, anyway. McFaddens Exclusivity factor: N/A. Where is this? The Class Board description entices with “free drinks, great food, music and deals.” Okay. Sounds like a bar. Oyster Brunch Exclusivity factor: 5/5. Because brunch tastes best after we’ve been waiting in line for forty-five minutes.
As the latest polar vortex wreaks havoc on our exposed bottoms, one smart-ass (get it?) hauled a space heater into the Commons bathroom. Now that's how you set yourself up for the number one number two of your life!
FEB CLUB IS HERE! For all you part-time, checked-out, unemployed, and hardly-sober seniors, this is your month. UTB's first in a series of four posts previews the February events, from walks of shame down memory lane to overpriced cultural events! Get excited: This Saturday night, it all begins... #1: Feb Club First Toast Did you know that the first First Toast originally happened in 700 BC? Yeah, we know, crazy. #tradition #2: Super Bowl Pregame at Blarney Come and remember why you never set foot in Blarney after freshman year. (Ed. note: Not satisfied with the Blarney spread of breakfast foods? Check out UTB’s Superbowl Eating Game tomorrow because, let’s face it, nachos over everything.) #3: Distrito Free drinks for the first 200 attendees. Drink with the 199 most overaggressive people in your grade. #4: Philly Orchestra Like every other downtown, conversation is not encouraged. Insta the trombonist and make pianist jokes while getting cultured. #5: Atlantic City Penn ‘14: The craziest thing to hit AC since Sandy. Time to waste the salary bonus that you won’t have time to spend next year. #6: 80’s Concert: The Legwarmers Wait. If you dress up, you get a free SEPTA token. Ivy league perks. Class Board REALLY loves us. #7: Animal House @ Crave + Rave Because, college.
Today's lesson on how to not promote your startup comes from Engineering freshman and founder of note-sharing site "Noteriety" Adam Elkassas, who blasted 500 Wharton email addresses (from Aarumugamangalam to Brown, and probably more) without using bcc.
