Ego
The College Green
To high school all-stars across America who are blessed with intelligence and popularity, Penn is a beacon of hope.
Ego of the Week
During Fling, your safety lies with SPEC prez and Fling Safe head Max Cancre. The Senior speaks on Luda, painkillers, and why you should Fling safely... or die. Street: What is the objective of Fling Safe? Max Cancre: You mean other than to get people to Fling safely?
The University of Sexylvania
The Street Sweeper may be defunct, but that was just gossip anyway. In the spirit of Fling, here are four true sex stories - messy, drunken sex stories.
We (Don't) Have to Take Our Clothes Off!
You're running around the Quad, going from one fried food stand to the next, bumping into people you haven't seen since freshman year and trying half-heartedly to listen to the music coming from the Lower Quad stage.
Boys (And Girls) In The Hood
This street may not necessarily welcome frat boy antics or the occasional "40s and Blunts" late night.
Ego of the Week
Senior class president Puneet Singh isn't just a one-trick pony. This Ohio native is a member of both Dhamaka and Simply Chaos, and is proud to call himself a Sphinge. Street: Best and worst perks of being senior class president?
Ego of the Week
Senior Raheem Palmer is Penn's number one DJ to date. DJ "R to da Izza" mixes on his music, Adobe Photoshop and DJ Ben Franklin. Street: How did you get involved in DJing? Raheem Palmer: I've always been fascinated by turntables, and I noticed that all of the producers I looked up to started out as DJs.
What's That Building?
When walking on 37th past the Compass towards the Quad, you may have wondered what the tranquil-looking - and kind of eerie - quad is that sits parallel to Locust Walk.
The Polaroid Camera
The Polaroid instant camera, a leading item in 20th century retail and often cited as a precursor to the digital era, died in late February.
Ego of the Week
Molly Mitchell splits her time between comedy improv group Without A Net, the men's crew team and her dorm room in Hill.
Say Cheese
Holga Camera by Lomography $70.00 With the popularity of digital photography, it may be hard to pull yourself away from the instant gratification of a digital image.
Ego of the Week: Rylan Collins
Freshman Rylan Collins has a lot to balance: ROTC, a pending record deal and Penn Engineering. He still has time, however, to go for the ladies and work on his "mojo." Street: We hear you turned down a record deal to come to Penn.
You Are Such a Tool!
We operate in a world of jargon, a world of insider slang, a world of in-the-know lexicon. It's easy to get lost in the act of ranting in idiom, but do you ever feel like you don't know exactly what you're saying?
Consumerism: Fred Style
I came to the University of Pennsylvania with the goal of becoming an economics major. I had never taken an econ class before, but it seemed like the most concrete option for a College student such as myself who fears the possibility of living a poverty-stricken life.
Ego of the Week
Kaegan Sparks hails from a small southern-Texas town, but she's making a big mark on Penn's urban campus.
Ego of the Week
Fashion designer Jordan Cohen reveals his true colors. The College junior expounds on 34th Street (yes, the actual street), Skittles and public nudity. Street: How would you describe your personal style? Jordan Cohen: It's really a lack thereof.
Scrab-tacular
No matter how too-cool-for-school you think you are, there's one dorky pastime even the toughest of us Ivy League badasses can't pass up.
Last-Minute Valentine's
Didn't have time to pick up something special for your special someone? Never fear. We've got the best last-minute Valentine's gifts this side of 34th Street. M&M has the hook-up for those Valentine's Day non-conformists.
Superbowl Commercials
Let's face it, the real entertainment occurs in between plays. Check out the best commercials of this year's Super Bowl. A throwback to Will Ferrell's signature move in A Night at the Roxbury, this Diet Pepsi Max commercial was a refreshing (pun intended) break from the not-so-subtle humor attempts of other ads.
