Greekdex is back--As if Facebook somehow doesn't fulfill your stalking needs, the stalk-my-sorority database, Greekdex, has returned after a one-year hiatus. You won't be able to see much until you log in, but features include house directories, Spotify playlists, and photo albums. For those who care about their ogle-ability more than their Google-ability, the site is sure to be far from bro-ing!
Oh No!--Someone pulled the fire alarm in VP. We're not sure who or why, but we hope you stay warm! Here's to doing work in Huntsman!
Graduation Speaker Announced--Come May, the Class of 2013 will be hearing a commencement address by...Macklemore Joe Biden! We're sorta hoping there's a mixup with next week's speaker. Check out the DP for more details.
Premise: Penn students fundamentally desire knowledge.
Check out the logo on Penn Football's newest sweatshirts, released last night and worn today by every member of the team. What? Franklin Field has a purpose beyond the Fling concert? We promise, it's a big deal! The football team won the Ivy League championship last year. Start planning your tailgate (is that a thing here?) for next year with the just-released 2013 Fall schedule.
Save A Life--Here's a real chance to do some good--and you can do it during your evening Starbucks run! Swab your cheek tomorrow from 7-9pm under Commons (or Wednesday 11am-3pm in Houston and 6-8pm at the SDT Chapter House) to see if you are a bone marrow donor match. The whole process is super easy! Send an email here to find out more/help out.
Wanted! One Quizzo host.
You may have only entered Steiny-D while pass-failing FNCE 100 pre-recruitment season, or perhaps you used the Wharton building for its special blend of coffee. But the most recent makeover included the completion of two classrooms. We snooped around to give you a sneak peak of what to expect.
A new semester means a new supply of dining dollars, but if you're too lazy to find a Freshman to steal meal swipes from, your culinary cravings can still be satisfied (Kung Foo Hoagies!!). The real problems arise when your lethargy is so great that taking the elevator down from a Highrise second floor is too much of an effort. Thankfully, one campus entrepreneur whose profit margins leave a lot to be desired will help ya out. Let's just hope you have the energy to fish the cash out of your wallet!
We all hate those kids who pregame their BYOs with a bowl of pasta at their place, avoiding any drinks at dinner because they refuse to shell out the 3 bucks for alc. But just wait till you graduate. As a recent NY Times article reported, college grads--especially Penn grads--spend tons of money on food. “I don’t think about what anything costs,” Emily Gerard, a recent graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and a publishing assistant making the requisite salary, told me recently. “I’ll drop $60 once a week at the Greenmarket, which I would never do at a grocery store; I like supporting local farmers.” This might be you some day! And it might even land you a quote in the paper. Speaking of which: Gerard might not be the only one without a filter. Hear something crazy on Locust? Let us know!
All that shouting you hear isn't your neighbor lamenting his final paper grade--it's Allied Barton protesting for their contracts. Take your study break now and go for a walk outside College Hall where they're gathered. Check the DP Twitter for minute-by-minute updates!
Feel free to put off going on SEPTA for the first time a little longer.
Here's a scheme to get an A: compliment your professor!
Ever had an urge to take a selfie while studying in VP? Well NOW IS YOUR CHANCE to win free stuff for taking pics during your study breaks.
Want to be among the first to change your prof pic to include Amy G this holiday season? Come to Hillel at 5PM TONIGHT to light candles with the President herself.
[Disclaimer: This post was part of our Joke Day series. Didn't the font tip you off?] Thinking of cheating? Think again. In an attempt to thwart potential cheaters, the Office of Student Conduct has posted flyers around campus (citing their sources at the bottom of the page, of course), warning students about the potential consequences of being a rule-breaker. Scared? So are we. But we do think strapping ourselves into a chair could be a productive study method!
Like a tweenage girl who insists upon celebrating her birthday for an entire month, the Penn Museum is making sure 'tis not the last time we hear its name before the world semester ends.
The Anti-Social Ivy--Look out Quakers: Philly is about to be deluged in projectile vomit! In the wake of our post earlier today profiling high-level (and high-IQ) dining, our future co-workers decided to start-up with us. Read more about the drama here.
Hey, sports fans! Remember the good ol' days when you were able to watch 9 straight hours of back-to-back-to-back football games over the weekend and cram all your homework into the commercial breaks? (We still do that, too).
