Word on the Street: New Year's Resolutions
New year, new me, new Highbrow. Highbrow knows that all of you lovely Penn kids take the start of a new year and semester in stride and use the opportunity to change something about yourself. And we wanted to know just what resolutions you guys had in store for the new year. So we asked and here are your responses:
Holiday Horror Stories
Busted By Mythbuster My sister loves the Discovery Channel show "Mythbusters" almost as much as she loves Christmas itself.
Overheard at Penn: 1.17.13
Dude: Brb I’m gonna take a shit. Sorority girl: I literally had to suck dick to survive. Girl: You’re pregnant.
The Round Up: 1.17.13
Welcome, welcome, lovies, to the 74th Annual Hunger Games! We kid, we kid, although sometimes a fight to the death might be preferable to being featured in the Round-Up.
Ask Miss Cassandra: Condom Comfort and Sexile
A blast from the past, Street's very own Miss Cassandra has made a return from the unremembered 80s. Who is she? Our very own Dr. Ruth, sex guru and all–around new best friend.
Who's Having the Worst Week at Penn? 1.14.2013

Overheard at Penn
Pete ordering food: Can I get sweet and sour and soy sauce with that? Pete: Yeah, I have a final on the 18th. Pete's friend: You look nice today.
The Round Up: 12/6/12
Finals are almost upon us, beautiful readers. Before we all lock ourselves away in Van Pelt, let’s celebrate our last week of classes with your weekly Pete gossip. SPOTTED: Highbrow hears that Pete was quite the admirer of culture this week, SABS–ing at the STIM show "A Year with Frog and Toad" and the Pennsori concert. A tipster tells us he described them as "awesome." Anna Wintour, watch your back — looks like Pete is the new front row show personality. Talk about a good friend!
Dispatch: Following My Sweet Pete
9:00 a.m.: I wake up and I feel it — today’s the day.
How to Survive Your Final Semester, From Someone Who Just Survived Hers
There are firemen in my kitchen right now. They’re here for the second time today and the fifth time this week.
Overheard at Penn: 11.29.2012
Girl 1: So how’s your mom doing? Girl 2: She’s good. She’s getting her boobs redone, so… Gymnast in Houston: What if I had noodles instead of teeth… Bro: Sometimes I think my dog is just kind of an asshole. Guy after Radian evacuation: Does this mean I can't get my fucking Chipotle?! Blonde girl: My "emo" phase was really more like a poser scene phase with a hipster mindset. Sorority Girl: I preffed a girl who was choosing between us and nothing.
My Penn Addiction: Going to Frat Parties to Admire the Architecture
The lights are dim, the drinks are flowing and the music is blasting a lamentable combination of Top 40 and techno.
The Roundup: 11.29.2012
Thanksgiving may be over, kittens, but you know, gossip never sleeps. Highbrow loves nothing more than family holidays abundant with alcohol and political election backlash.
Word on the Street: In Search of Tanya
I’m hopeful every self–respecting senior has, as I do, a bucket list. I have neither the space nor chutzpah to enumerate my personal bucket list here. For those who don’t have one, take comfort in knowing that mine is too long and mostly impossible and any points of completion will surely offer little solace when it actually comes time to graduate. In thinking about how best to utilize this column to cross something off my bucket list, however, I would like to issue a formal search warrant for my apparent doppelgänger, Tanya. If it wasn’t necessary to the comprehension of this story, I would hide the fact that I frequent Einstein’s pretty regularly.
