ShutterButton: Class Registration From A Past Generation

(10/16/13 5:53pm)

It feels like one of those days...where we just give up and go to bed. These midterms are killing us not so softly, and what better way to cut your losses than by picking next semester's classes midterms! Pictured here are students at advance registration, and we're feeling as worn out as this chica looks. Hang in there, times may seem thorny, but just thank the rose who deemed paper ballots as passé as those hairstyles.











Lee's Leaves

(06/07/13 8:24pm)

First Don Memo and now Lee's? We are livid hungry heart-broken. After 28 majestic years, Lee's Hoagie House on 40th and Walnut is closing next Wednesday. Yea sure, Wawa and Jimmy John's are swell after 1 am, but it pains us to say sayonara to yet another long time member of Penn's local restaurant scene.


Long Live The King!

(05/30/13 2:34pm)

With students away, animals reign at the University of Pennsylvania. As if Lentil wasn't cute enough, meet Elvis - the boy kitten who lived. After a dangerous ingestion of some dastardly lilies, this year old kitten needed cat dialysis, which shockingly is a thing. Owner Paula Armstrong turned to Dr. JD Foster, one of the many miracle doctors at Penn Vet. The doctors then determined that Elvis needed a new kidney, and the search for a donor began.


ShutterButton: Fish(er)ing For Finals

(05/01/13 2:34pm)

We're dreaming of a white Christmas weeknight bootycall library that hasn't reached maximum occupancy this week. Despite Fisher's current lack of seats (bitter), we're glad the setup has changed significantly since 1900, when this photo was taken. Looks like a perfect place to cram for Intro to Claustrophobia or cry about that last BYO/mixer/shitshow you're missing. Don't fret honey child, you're evidently amongst friends, and there's always next year.



Locust Flaikus: SABOTAGED

(04/11/13 7:10pm)

This just in, our in-high-demand Locust Flaikus were sabotaged today. We have eye-witness reports that Locust Walk suffered a new kind of infestation: ART VENDORS. Only one flyer survived the madness, so it looks like they win these Hunger Games.                                                                                 Sigma Psi Zeta Presents Rouge Tonight maybe go downtown to the Roxxy, yo Bring your ID though ...that's all, folks!


Take Back The Night

(04/03/13 4:06pm)

Take part in Penn's protest against sexual assault and domestic abuse tomorrow at 6 pm on College Green. Join ASAP at Penn, One in Four, and other Quakers as they march across campus to raise sexual and relationship violence awareness. After the rally, the peaceful night concludes with a candlelight vigil and a survivor speak out led by Amy Richards, creator of the Third Wave Foundation and author of Manifesta.


ShutterButton: Vintage Quad

(03/27/13 5:30pm)

Spring Fling is in the air and we are so freakin' excited! What better way to get psyched (or faded, if you will) than to check out a Quad throwback? Pictured are two Penn students strolling through the LQ courtyard on a beautiful day in 1947. Here's hoping for warm Fling weather like this, and maybe a worthwhile headliner? Sending out an SOF (save our Fling)! ... David Guetta, are you there? Anybody?

Mask and Wig Spring Tour

(03/01/13 4:00pm)

For all of you Mask and Wig groupies who are dreading the wig-less week ahead, do not fret, you're in luck! The Club is taking over the east coast, bringing their show, Beautopia: A Face Odyssey, to a major city near you. According to Secretary-Treasurer Harrison Lieberfarb C'13, "Every year, Mask and Wig writes its own show, which runs from January to April..this is what makes the show so unique- it runs for the semester, and it's an entirely student written, full-length comedic musical".
