In a surprising 12 place jump, Williams Hall has beat out Van Pelt and Huntsman Hall (last year, ranked one and two respectively) in the 2019 Daily Pennsylvanian Safest UPenn Academic Building Rankings. Apparently bag checks and weekend security guards are no match for locking a building 24/7.

Finance guys — they're big and strong and also manly. The names of the hedge funds should reflect how big and strong and manly they are. Personally, if I were a guy in finance, I would name my hedge fund something like Lightening Bolt Capital or Monster Truck Associates. Those names are pretty sick.

It's no secret. Prescription drug use runs rampant in many colleges, including in my own school, the University of Pennsylvania. I myself have many friends who have fallen victim to horrible addiction and by no fault of their own. No, it is the large, slimy, money-grubbing corporations that are to blame. They are the ones to profit from the addictive nature of the human body, and these corporate pigs care nothing for the individuals that are affected.

One of the best, and weirdly sceniest, food trucks on campus, Chez Yasmine offers Penn students a healthier alternative to typical food truck grub. Always friendly, owner Jihed Chehimi chats students up (often in French) while cooking them up his famous Wistar sandwich or his delicious lamb couscous.

Smashing beers on my face? Yeah bro. Breaking tables? Sent. Knocking down fences? Killing it man.

It's well known that Penn is full of city slickers and folk from the North East, making it easy to forget that the school is home to people of a wide variety of backgrounds. If you're part of the majority, you'll have no trouble finding your niche at the school, whether that be in a Wharton club, a performing arts group, or The Walk.

Aw, it's adorable that we have a third person sharing our living space. I love waking up and not being able to use the bathroom because you guys are having shower sex. May I add that the extra dirty dishes you still expect me to clean are just delightful.

Popularized by TOMS shoes, one for one programs are advertisement and charity rolled into one. Golden Goose, a brand for the people, has decided to join the ranks of TOMS and many other altruistic companies.

Every gay woman has been there. You're sitting in class, looking aggressively homosexual, and yet apparently not homosexual enough. On one hand, you must commend Jeffery in Econ 010 for not making any assumptions. But on the other, you're really trying to show, not tell, your sexual orientation: you're sick and tired of coming out.

Embarrassing! Sam Sun’s (C '21) Spotify followers totally saw him bopping to Sheck Wes’s "Mo Bamba" at 10 a.m.! “It helps me wake up,” he protested when asked about these claims. However, his friends were not impressed by his response.

Tired of falling off your dinky little road bike every time you hit a Philly street crater? Well look no further, because UTB is your new hook up for burly, tough, thick-wheeled bicycles. Not only will any bike off this list handle pot holes like a champ, but you'll also have that cool, outdoorsy man aesthetic that you'll need if you want to roll up to United by Blue any time soon.

It’s official: Katie Landman (W ’21) is now Penn’s female queer icon. While dancing with one of her “girlfriends” at a frat party, Landman thought it would be a pretty slick idea to give her buddy a kiss right on that elevated surface!

At Penn, guest lectures are often viewed as skip days for that class, or, at the very least, a nap period. However, when the guest is fairly notable, they might be able to fill about half a class. Penn often doesn’t host these kinds of lecturers, who tend to prioritize trips to Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Columbia, and, for some reason, Brown.

Even though Kristen Polman (N ’22) came out as gay at the ripe age of 15, her mother, Stacy Polman, sometimes just can’t help herself—especially during this past Parents Weekend.

Because Mint JUUL pods are, objectively, the superior-tasting nicotine delivery mechanism, it is no surprise that these puppies constantly sell out at Penn’s central Wawa. At the location on 38th and Spruce, these pods have been sold as quickly as 15 minutes after being restocked.

First Rosh Hashanah, then Yom Kippur, and now Fall Break. Ah yes, the three big Jewish holidays of the fall. Well that’s at least what freshman Melody Mitchel thought when she showed up to an empty psych classroom last Thursday.

Since 2016, Penn completely overhauled its Wharton 101 curriculum. But a little-known part of this change? All Wharton freshman were required to take an empathy test. When asked why this addition was made, Vice Dean and Director of the Wharton School Lori Rosenkopf responded, “There's a lot of talk about how Wharton students are cold-hearted. However, I was skeptical of this blanket statement. So to combat this stereotype, we administered this empathy test, and I am happy to say the results are extremely positive.”

Just like my mother, I believe in positive reinforcement. As a kid, when I would come home from school burnt out and tired, she would always make me a snack. It was something to look forward to. It was something that kept me excited to learn.
