Unmasking Penn's Poker Face

It’s a Tuesday night in March in the basement of Harrison College House, and four Penn students gather around an unused pool table.

Departure

You don’t get to pick where you were born. And yet, your birthplace has the power to determine your professional career more than any degree can. An Ivy League education doesn't open nearly as many doors for international students as you'd expect.
